You want to run a windows executable?

JButton button = new JButton("Fraps!");

button.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
{
  public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
  {
    try
    {
      Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
      rt.exec("C:\\Fraps\\fraps.exe");
    }
    catch (Exception ioe)
    {
      ioe.printStackTrace();
    }
  }
});

If you are dealing with websites, use BrowserLauncher.
