discussion whats a good auto start program

[tzetsin]

i need a program that will autmatically start a chosen program, even if its been manually shut down.

for example, if i was to close my browser, this program would detect it and automatically restart the browser.

anyone know of such a thing?

My curiosity has got the better of me and I am wondering why you would need such a program.

Sorry this wasn't a helpful post.

The first thing that came to mind was running your application as a service. It's a little complciated to set up, so check out Keep Application Running by Automatically ReRun When Closed Raymond.CC Blog instead. Good luck

If I were to guess, forcing a persistent internet browser would be useful for a computer terminal (such as in stores) or an external display that streamed from an online source via the browser.
