He wasn't that far off, Rob.  The OP asks a question in a
way that suggests Linux ("daemon" is not a typical Windows
term) but posts in HTML from Windows.  Even if the HTML
itself was not as annoying as, say, top-posting is, the
OP still ought to provide a little background to help us
give a useful answer.
