Another stunning observation by Grok! :-P

It would be easy to do it in visual basic, just create a timer, set interval to, say, 10000 milliseconds, and in the tmrIdle_Timer() function (sorry, this is vb... sub), do shell("notepad.exe") or whatever program.



[note: thanks to ste4lth for reminding me of the function to call]
This'll make an interesting test for broken AV:

You might use the Windows Task Scheduler.

This should have been posted in somewhere besides the BotDev forum.
