Well, this is what I think. I guess I would run them with
CreateProcess, get their handles and move and resize them. I
also think it's possible with Get/SetWindowsLong(?) to make
them un-resizable and non-moveable. However, to tell Windows 
that I want to see some of the events sent to one of those 
windows seems somehow much more complicated. Maybe somebody
here knows if it's possible and if it's hard or easy?
