Your code is running on the wrong thread. See SwingUtilities.invokeLater.

Or use javax.swing.Timer instead of java.util.Timer.

Probably not necessary. repaint() certainly not and toFront() is a
method of Window and probably doesn't need to be called on the EDT.

Why would it not need to be called on the EDT?

There isn't anything in the Javadocs to indicate that Window is thread safe.

Window is an AWT component. No requirement to use the EDT on AWT
components that I know of.
