Does all of that means you guys don't know how to do that, or you're
just trying to sound like my parents?
I didn't want to sound like your parents.
Actually I don't know how to disable the ESC key (at least not in a JOptionPane). With some effort it might be possible in a JDialog.

The decision about disabling the
ESC key or not is not up to me. I wouldn't do that on a personal
project, but that's not my personal project, and I HAVE to do that.
If I were you, I would tell your boss, that forcing the dialog to OK, is likely to make your users angry, hence generating a financial disadvantage in the long-term.

By the way: Did you ever get Microsoft's famous bug-report-dialog (after an application-crash) asking you whether you want to send diagnostic material to Microsoft? I use to cancel that dialog simply for security reasons (because I don't know exactly which data would be sent).

But thanks anyway.
