unicorn is on a distinguished road
Yes. What OS? running this command in a command window:

X:\"program files"\"internet explorer"\iexplore.exe

substituting X with the letter for your system drive will start Internet Exploded if you are running XP. My guess is that Outlock can be started in a similar way. Then depending of the OS there are different ways to handle bat-files (minor differences) and their content. If you for example want a batfile to "stay open" in a command window while an application is running and close a little later the syntax differs. This can be a start though, I think you can see the basic ideea.

As always Google is your friend. There are lots of pages describing bat-files. Theese can bo made pretty advanced with some training and include commands like start, exit, call, and even time-delay functions. A tip, when done you sometimes can have good use of the fact that a shortcut laying on the desktop can be given different properties (rightclick and check it out).

Good luck!
