Not knowing what OS, this may or may not be possible, although I'm betting since it is via Windows, that Linux can definitely do it too. Instead of running a script in the background, create a request through the Windows scheduler (or CRON in Linux, I think). What you stick in the scheduler to run is your choice. Could be a PHP script, a .BAT file, .sh file or whatever. You can set the scheduler task to run immediately, or within 'x' time. Whatever you want.
