      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.4.1_02"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_02-b06)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1_02-b06, mixed mode)

      Have also tried with 1.4.2.

      FULL OS VERSION :
      Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

      EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
      Windows start menu is set to always on top.

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      The OS start bar is covered when maximized is performed on a JFrame decorated by the L&F.


      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :

      Use the sample app and maximize the frame when visible on the display containing the start bar.





      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      The frame should not cover the start bar, when always on top is selected in the start menu.
      ACTUAL -
      The start bar is covered by the frame.

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.
