Java application ticker like NetControls?

Hi there,


Has anyone made a NetControls ticker in Java. This is not an applet, it's an application. I wish to do the same in Java and if anyone has code for it, it would be appreciated. What this application does is sit on the users desktop. Options are available to see stocks, news, weather etc. from their my.yahoo.com setup scroll continuously and be refreshed continuously automatically.

If anyone knows how to do this in Java (or C++ if I can't get it for Java) please let me know.

TIA.
