Tiemo, in that case you can use a modeless dialog, which will give you the
closebox. True it's not truly modal, but then again it doesn't have to be -
they can close it when they want to and it shouldn't interfere with the rest
of your app, even if they submarine it by clicking on another window. This
is like the About boxes in Mac apps...

Just my 2 cents,
