I believe the rule is that the status bar will appear for a heavyweight
window displayed in a unsigned applet. It doesn't matter whether the window
is a JFrame, a popup window or (IIRC) a tooltip - provided the window is
heavyweight. If you don't see the message, your window is a lightweight
window or you are running in an open/unsecured environment (e.g. a signed
jar, an altered java.policy file, or running as a standalone Java app).

Strange, because when my applet downloads a jar file, there is no status
bar. Is
that frame also regular JFrame or something else?
