Re: JAWS 6 slow start

What does it mean to run an application as a service?  Is this an expression 
used whenever you have an application launch upon startup?  Or does it mean 
something else?  And why isn't the expression used in environments like the 
Jaws end user documentation and tutorials?  Is it more a programmer's term 
than an end user's?
Thanks.
