Need to add method to install a scheduled task to invoke execution of script at login

Since we are monitoring incidents with great specificity in order to notify users of status, we may as well take the opportunity to print useful debug statements for admins in addition to audible notifications for users.

done

Once all logon scripts have completed, voice can read windows is ready for use

Logon Authentication Successes & Failures can be spoken as JAWS doesn't do this.

Need to add feature to translate difficult to dictate process names to friendly names.. for example, jfw.exe should instead read as JAWS screen reader

at this point we are using a mix of Win32_NTLogEvent instance creation event subscriptions and polling using Get-WinEventLog. Looks like the former method does not support log file types other than the legacy system, application, and security. Consolidate on use of Get-WinEventLog in future release.

1. leave hang detection up to hangdetector (3rd party tool) and post-process hang-detector event log entries with event subscriptions
   pro - in place within target environment
   con - event notification propagation delay
   con - not available in development enviroment
2. include hang detection capabilities within script using "running" property of get-process members.
   con - appears to cause system wide hang when any single process hangs
   pro - might work as admin
3. include hang detection capabilities within script using pinvoke of user32.dll isHungWindow API.
   pro - fastest indicator of hang begin/end state
   con - does not work when script runs as scheduled task. would force us to operate in user mode only and exclude certain planned features.

Want to add when an application has crashed

at present we are polling status of things we care about looking for changes in the last 1 second. If there is an incident which requires audio notification, the speech engine will take more than 1 second to read out the details of the incident. This could cause events to be missed. rework code accordingly.

Need to add feature to exit script when user initiates log off
