Hello everybody!

Can anyone help me develop this application:

Suppose there is a server (system admin) who wants to send a message to all its clients, so that that message (can contain graphics, text, maybe html) will appear on clients Windows's Screen..and will not go away until client(user) presses "OK I have read" button there.

What do you suggesT? Can Java do this? Or is it better to write it in C++? ...

As I understand there will be client applications on client machines that will be "listening" to server all the time and when some message comes, client will display (somehow) on the screen.

Any suggestion?..

Thanks.

if you are on linux use wall.
