CM,
What I've used in the past is an auto-run command list. In the Help index,
enter this : "auto run when a window opens" without the quotes.
In short, create a new command list. On the Command List tab in the
configure dialog box, select the setup button. Go to the "Special List" tab
and ensure that your new command list is the one listed in the "Open" drop
down.
Then, create a new list item. In the Name edit box put the caption
"Sygate*" (without the quotes). Either put the call to the autoit script in
the command list's "Enter Command" edit box, or create a PP script file with
the AutoIt script file call and call the PP script from the "Enter Command"
edit box. Usually, I use a win.debug('here') call first until I can get the
Name right, then swap out the debug call with my real code. You might need
to play with the caption some.
If you need to use a wait call, then I recommend the script. My experience
with the auto-run is that the additional check is unnecessary, but your
machine might be different.
I stay away from HookWindows. Every time I use it, I get in trouble, and I
don't customize my machine so heavily that PP native abilities don't cover
what I need.
