Does anyone know how I can set a program to automatically run at a set time
after I log on? For example, could I set Windows Media Player to run 1 minute
after I have logged in to my account? Running Windows XP Home SP2. Thanks in
advance.
 
You could use Scheduled Tasks or the Startup folder to run a bat file with

Ping -n 61 127.0.0.1

as a 60 second delay before the line with your Media player exe

2 minutes would be -n 121
