I have the same problem. Recently a found a cool java game
(http://www.plutoniumsoftware.com/ -> Burning metal). When I launch it,
both through Netscape or appletviewer, it opens a full screen window and if
an error is encountered and the game is stopped I have no way to close this
window. No keys, no mouse clicks work. Nothing at all. This window seems to
be as ignorant to anything as an xlock window. Have to telnet from another
compute and kill java process.

Would like to hear the answer too.

I am using:

Netscape 4.73,
java version "1.2" Solaris VM (build Solaris_JDK_1.2_01, native threads, sunwjit),
SUN Openwindows 3.6.1.0,
[FVWM][main]: Fvwm Version 2.3.17 compiled on May 15 2000 at 16:43:09
[FVWM][main]: with support for: ReadLine RPlay Stroke XPM IMLIB Session

SE> Any help is much appreciated

Yeah, me too please! ;-)

P.S. Does anyone know how do I tell TaskBar to stay on top of all windows
that are places in the bottom of the screen? If I do so I can probably use
it to kill the annoying window that takes the whole screen.
