Sorry, I think I should be more clear on what I want. I want to rn a
java application  as a Windows NT service, which I know how to do. I
want this program  to look every 2 minutes if a certain program is
running eg blah.exe. If blah.exe is well running, it should perform a
specific task, like opening a window and telling the user that this
is a banned application on the network I help administrate. I only
want help with the detection of running  programs.
