How to Start a Program at System Startup under Specific User Account?

Hi,

I recently purchased a Creative Modem Blaster PCI with the "SuperVoice"
aoftware which can act as an answering machine. Because I have two users on
my Windows XP Pro system, I thought I would create a new account named
"Messages" which I would then have launch the SuperVoice software on system
startup.

Each of the "real users" could then log on as the "Messages" user account to
check voicemail, etc. Does this sound possible?

I don't think the SuperVoice software takes into account multi-user systems,
and doesn't run as a system service.

Sure appreciate any thoughts you might have...

TIA,
Jim Davie
 
You could probably do it that way. You would have to log into the messages
user, start the software, then just switch to your other user, leaving the
messages user logged in and the software running. Then to check messages you
just switch users and check them. If you log the messages user off it won't
work, but if the user stays logged in, it should work fine.
