Longshot

I know this is a long shot but...

Is there a way to start an application in the same state it exists
when you disconnect a remote session on Server 2003?

This is what I want to accomplish:

I have some critical software of a questionable quality. I have
written a Ruby service that will start the app at boot and check
periodically to make sure it's still running. I would like to be able
to launch this program in such a way that when the account it runs as
logs in they can interact with the GUI. Basically I want the same
behavior you get when you log-in remotely, start it up, disconnect,
then log in again and it's still there and ready to go.

If someone knows how to do exactly what I'm trying that would be great
but if not pointing in the possible right direction would be awesome
too.

Thanks,
Glen
