Because you are doing something wrong.

Maybe you're overriding the paint or paintComponent method without calling super.paint or super.paintComponent?

Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.

Probably because you make the GUI visible before adding the components to the GUI.

If you need further help then you need to create a [url http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html]Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program[/url] (SSCCE) that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.

Don't forget to use the [url http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting]Code Formatting Tags[/url] so the posted code retains its original formatting.
