This program is a hidden program launcher. This will launch a specified program or .WAV file every X minutes. You setup the program or .WAV file to be launched, you setup the time (in minutes) how often the program/WAV file should be launched. This will piss off any user. Just think if every 5 minutes notepad.exe would start up, or "you suck" WAV file would play. Better yet, bundle this program with my Open/Close CD program and you can make the CD-ROM drive open every 2 minutes. Just think of the unlimited possibilities...
