Ramon:

You may not be able to do this.  The applet is downloaded to the client 
and does 99% of it's running from there.  If you force Windows L&F then 
not everyone will be able to run it (only people on Windows machines).

Are you using the Plugin to run your applet?  You shouldn't need to send 
the L&F stuff down to the client.
