The only way of running a program in the background in NT and I presume you
are talking about NT is to run it as a service.  You can find some utility
that
can run a program as a service on NT in the Resource Kit.

I am building a program for use on Windows and Linux and I don't want
the user to have it on their taskbar all the time getting in their way,
my problem is that I don't know how to run a program in the background
on Windows, I have used os.fork on Linux but this doesn't work on
Windows....

Thanks in advance :-)
