There is a way I have used: just start it, using a script, with the AT command, like

AT 18:37 c:\Jigsaw\Jigsaw\bin\jigsaw.cmd (one minute later than computer time)

It will run as system account, and you can log out and have it running as long as the
machine is up.

The problem is still to have it shut down properly... You should insure that somebody
calls jigkill before shutting donw the machine.
