CheerWhore asked:
i need to run a program 24hrs 6 day per week on windows xp and also ensure that when i’m physically not present in the vicinity of my pc, no one can access the pc. this program downloads foreign exchange (forex) rates every X number of minutes of my choosing (X can be 1 minute, 5 minutes, 0.5 hours, 1 hours, 4 hours, etc). i can’t logoff from windows xp as windows xp terminates all currently running programs.

is there some kind of access control software that allows my program to continue running after i restrict access to my pc? i came across winu from www.bardon.com which seem to allow me to do so (check their faq). know of any other software?
