Background Processes

How can I create a background process (on Windows) that will make my program run even after you click the 'X'? I was thinking of adding an alarm (clock) into a program that I made, which will ring at the specified time. If you leave the program running then it will ring when it sees the specified time matches the current time but if you close the program then it won't be checking anymore, so how can I make it continuously check to see if the current time matches the specified time - EVEN WHEN THE WINDOW/PROGRAM IS CLOSED?

Re-asking my question from above... to put it back on the activity/home page so that maybe it will get answered.

It seems to me that there hasn't been anyone on the Greenfoot site in the past 12 days that knows how to create a background process in Windows from Greenfoot (or anywhere just the point is in Java). I shouldn't really expect any replies because I don't think it makes sense for someone to reply saying that they don't know, and no one replied so that must mean that simply no one knows.
