Microsoft has a scripting tool called Windows Scripting. It is an object
oriented scripting tool which allows you to execute almost anything on a
timed basis. It pretty complex to learn, but the basics are pretty easy. If
you don't have it as part of SP3 look around Microsoft's Web site. It is
included as part of their Visual Studio, also. If this is too complex, you
could look at the 'AT' command for scheduling things 'AT' certain times.
