You can't change it for just one window. If you change it, it will
affect all windows on the system. And that's generally considered to
be poor form without the user's permission.

If this were an ordinary (non-Java) window application, you would be
able to draw anything you want on the caption by intercepting
WM_NCPAINT messages. I don't know of any way to get that level of
control in a Java application (unless you use the Microsoft VM with
its hooks into the operating system).
