You could use OpalisRobot (www.jsiinc.com/catalog/opalis.htm) to monitor the
folder and fire a bactch that copies the new file. It uses almost no resources.

You could schedule a batch to start when the system starts. The batch to
periodically run ROBOCOPY to synchronize the folder. Robocopy is a reskit tool,
tip 3277 in the 'Tips & Tricks' at http://www.jsiinc.com

You could script a batch to start when the system starts that records the state
of the folder to a file (dir /b). It could then periodically check and copy new
files and update the state. It could sleep (reskit) between checks.
