Only exit the current program, not both!

Question

hi, i have a problem with a timer program.
When it "time's out", it starts a new program called reminder2. When you exit reminder2 ( system.exit(1); ) it's quit the program that started it (takati) .
Takati:
class RemindTask  extends TimerTask {
                  public void run() {
                              new reminder2();
                              timer.cancel();
              }Remind2:
          block2++;
          if(block2==2)
          System.exit(11);
          }Thanks in advance!

Sorry for this stupid question, how do i stop it?
i tried with return; but it don't work. It's a gui program , here is the code:
import javax.sound.sampled.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.util.Timer;
import java.util.TimerTask;
import sun.audio.*;   
import java.io.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
