Frames always display in the taskbar when minimized. You have to make your
main window(s) Dialogs then and implement the necessary stuff using the
SystemTray class and the TrayIcon class; note that it's only available
since Java 1.6 and uses AWT classes only (no Swing) nor is it very portable.

kind regards,

Jos
