system privileges, it can run before the user log on!!

Sorry for my poor english :( I meant that sometimes I run it manually (after 
windows started!), and sometimes I let windows to start it automaticaly at 
startup (BUT NOT AS A NORMAL APPLICATION ... Service are run BEFORE any user 
logs on!!!) and with system privileges!

No at all!! And this confuse me a little ... if it even does not prompt me 
when I'm logged on, what when I'm not logged at all??

I'll try! Thank You!!
