How are you starting Proxo under Windows XP?

The free variant of the XP version only allows for hosting a single program tho.

Thanks Sidki, that might be what I end up using.

Oddysey: If I put it into the All Users startup folder, then each user would be starting their own copy of Proxo when they log on. Because you aren't forced to log out in XP before another user is logged on, then you'd have more than once copy of Proxo running. That will be a problem, because both of them would be trying to listen to port 8080 and accessing the same configuration files at the same time.
Maybe I could install Proxo into multiple directories and have each user run a copy
out of their own Proxo installation directory, listening on different ports, but
I'd rather use the same proxo configuration for all users (I'm the proxo tweaker, my girlfriend wouldn't want to learn how to configure it).

Of course XP SP2 is going to have a firewall and pop-up blocker, so maybe I
won't need Proxo on that machine [rolleyes]
