The Start Menu visibility is obviously specific to Microsoft Win32
platforms. You could simply make your application start with a maximized
window (JFrame, Frame), and just make sure the "Always on Top" property is
set in the Start Menu Properties dialog box.

If you have to programmatically make sure that property is set, then you'll
have to rely on whatever proprietary tools Microsoft has provided for Java.
