When you automatically start programs, you can specify that they run in the background so that they do not interfere with your typical operation. You should only configure the following iFIX tasks as background tasks (All of these files are located in the FIX Base path):

SAC (WSACTASK.EXE)
Historical Collect (HTC.EXE)
SQL Task (WSQLODC.EXE)
I/O Control (IOCNTRL.EXE)
Event Scheduler (FIXBACKGROUNDSERVER.EXE)
