5. Right click the java cup icon
It shows the menu items like the following : "Open 1.6.0_10 Console" and "Hide 1.6.0_10 Console"

EVALUATION This is happening because I was lazy in writing the new WindowsJavaTrayIcon class. This does not affect any functionality and is only a minor user interface issue. I am downgrading this to a P4.
