Hi, Sean. Window-Eyes doesn't currently monitor process creations. We rely on window events, as windows are what users will be interacting with (in fact, we go out of our way to sometimes ignore processes without UI). You could create a solution that exposes process creations through the Window-Eyes SharedObjects mechanism if you feel it's something other scripters could take advantage of.
