Active X Pre-Loading - activex

I have an Active X that is approximately 1Mb big in file size and needs to be this size due to the task it needs to perform. When the user goes to the page where the Active X will be loaded from for the first time it takes the Active X just under a minute to load after clicking the button. If the user does not close their browser window and selects the Active X again it will load in seconds.
Is there a way to pre-load Active X controls into the page so that it is ready when the user decides to use it by clicking a button?

In a batch file, show a working symbol after a pause

In my batch file, after a user taps a key for a pause, it then starts a process where nothing shows on the screen. During this time, the user might be tempted to hit a key again, thinking they did not continue the pause. After the user hits pause, I just want to show a working symbol on the screen so the user knows that the process is working in the background and that the file is processing something in the background.

Always present locked screen notification?

I want my app to be quickly accessible between pre-set hours, say 9am to 5am Mon-Fri from the locked screen so swiping right on the notification will take you directly to the app. Is there a way of making this notification "shortcut" always present on the locked screen during those pre-specified times?
Or if not, is there a way around it? e.g. make the notification pop-up 1 minute after the person locks their screen everytime?
Thanks

Is there an easy way to detect *any* (and all) user activity?

If the user interacts with my app in any way at all I want to restart a force logoff timer.
Any menu item, any button clicked (not sure about just click on the form).
Is there an easy way to detect that the user is still "active"?
This component is exactly what you are looking for. It is called ETimer and can be found here
Basically just put the timer on a form and set its interval for like 1000 ms, then in the timer event check the Snooze property of the timer, if the snooze property is greater that 60000 (1 min) then you know that the app has had no user interaction for 1 min.
It pretty easy to use but let me know if you get stuck.

iOS App Goes Dim

Very difficult issue to figure out...this only happens on a real device not plugged in. When my app loads up to the main view, i show a wait dialog while a few background threads fire off and search for products. this takes about 5-7 seconds. If I load the app and about 1-3 seconds in, i close the app and go to another app, then come back to my app, the screen dims around the edges and the app just freezes.
I did a few google searches for this screen dimming and couldn't find anything
The app never crashes.
