I have just released a small program that can be run from STinG's LOGIN.BAT 
and will execute multiple programs in parallel as opposed to STinG's normal 
sequential method. This means that on a multitasking o/s, you can have 
programs like POPwatch automatically start and collect your email as soon as 
the dialer has connected.

It will only work on a multitasking o/s (obviously), and I have only tested 
it under MagiC. If it doesn't work for you then be patient and let me know.

Please wait a couple of hours from the time of this message, before trying 
my web site to give the changes time to take place.

The program is called SPAWNER.

Regards,
Gary
