Do some research about windows services, any application can become a service, you dont need livecode to do that.

Services don't generally have a user interface component. User interfaces are a real strength of LiveCode so I choose other tools to write services. That said, I've heard the new LiveCode Builder in LiveCode 8 allows you to write headless apps that would be very suitable for services where the LiveCode engine is not needed. I can't wait to have a reason to try that.

Hum, this is quite interesting. I do use other tools to write services as well (Microsoft VS 2010), but it is generally quite complex. So yeah, when LC 8 is officialy released I may give a try.
