Further to Paul's "run as a service" option, you might want to read this

I do not know of any way you can do this from a batch file per se. The only
thing I can see is:

(1) You will need to configure Windows 2003 to stop this app from running.
You would have to set this up in :
        The registry
        As a Windows service
        Put a COM wrapper around the batch file using Windows notification
        API
        Perhaps use JNI to write a C Routine to shut this down, again using Windows
        Notification API.
        

If you were using Unix/Linux/Mac, you could probably do this from a shell
script. But without a full shell scripting language that has access to the
kernel APIs, I do not know how you could do this other than the methods I
described above,

Just remember, when you are wanting to use native OS operations, you have to
do some low level API work (unless, as stated you are using Unix or a Unix
derivative, where shell scripts give you additional power). Even on Unix,
you will invariably have to go outside Java or use JNI to call services or
Kernel/GDI apis direct.

Hope this helps!
