What is the best Program to Automate Windows Tasks?

[jpmattis]

I know windows comes with "windows task manager" but I need a program that I can use to automate keystrokes and mouseclicks. I also want to run the same combination of clicks/keystrokes every 30 seconds, with task manager I think you can only do it daily.

Do anyone know of a good program out there that will accomplish this for me?

Thanks,
JPMattis

I'll shift this over to the computer issues forum. They're bound to know something there. Also, stating why you want to be able to do this might enable someone to suggest a better way of getting the same job done. I don't think what you want can be done, but there's probably a much easier way of doing what you need. ;)

AutoIt.

Seriously, it is pretty darn powerful and useful, if you are willing to take a little time to learn the scripting language (it isn't that bad). You can even compile your scripts into an exe IIRC.
