The close button cannot actually be disabled, but pressing it just sends 
an event to your program, and you can handle that event in any way you 
would like, including ignoring it.

You cannot do much to control minimizing and maximizing of a frame in a 
Java application.  In the next release of Java, you should be able to 
maximize a frame programatically, but that is about it.

If you really need to prevent the user from performing doing this sort of 
thing, then you should use a Window instead of a Frame.  A Window has no 
title bar, minimize, maximize, close, or system buttons, so you do not 
have to worry about them.  If you want a title bar, your code can draw 
one.
