it needs to be scheduled.
- on *nix, a cron job will do it
- on mac, a program like iDo Script Scheduler (combined with a simple
applwscript) will do it
- on windows, i believe there are tools to do this, but not sure what they
are
alternatively, i set up a HTML page as my 'start' page on IE, which acts as
a portal, running a few scripts... since i open my browser about 360 days a
year, it's pretty reliable, and i've got a failsafe in there to make sure
the scripts are only run once per day.
