Does this software come with Cron? Can I task my script for any X minute rate?
The Cron daemon is a task scheduler used under Linux. Most web applications come with their own cron.php scripts that emulate Cron (in most ways). If you are looking for a Cron daemon directly on the system, the Windows Task Scheduler is considered to be just as robust and functional — and is included with Windows XP and up. After creating a task with the Windows Task Scheduler, under Properties for that task, there is an Advanced Options dialog that lets you set to repeat the task every 1 minute and above.
