How would one go about disabling the ability to move a window around the
desktop without making the window undecorated?

Thanks.

Hold a gun to the user's head and say..
"Move that window, and I shoot!"
..either that or break their mouse (and
possibly the 'arrow' keys on the keyboard).

As an aside, why would you want to do
such a thing to your end-user. Do you
hate them that much?

I've no idea, but why would you want to do that? It's the sort of thing
that would completely annoy the user (unless there were really specific
good circumstances for it).

If there is a listener which is invoked when the window is moved, then
call setLocation(...) in this listener....
Or open a Dialog which says : "please wait until that windows is burned into you screen"
Then it wont move anymore !
