Well sinc eits a simple application, you can rewrite it as an NT service using an ATL COM Template through the wizard in VC++ or if you can't be bothered doing that, just keep it in the Windows Startup Menu. Nothing wrong with doing that.
Thats the best I can think of. :rolleyes:

Only thing I can think of is you can create some form of a maximised system modal splash screen, that might help.
