In the actionPerformed(ActionEvent) method, call..

// end the applet by navigating to the 'applet ended' URL
applet.getAppletContext().showDocument(appletCloseURL);

Don't call System.exit(0) in an applet. This can cause the browser to be closed.

A better approach would be to run application in a JFrame and use Java Web Start to launch the application.
