The process will need to be processing Windows messages timely, in addition to doing what it’s regularly doing, which pretty much calls for a secondary thread to do the work while the primary thread listens for mouse-moves and keystrokes.

Yet more crap!

Any windows process can be suspended and resumed. And when it is resumed, it will carry on from where it left of with no knowledge it was ever suspended.

If it is a gui process, its screen will not respond to input while it is suspended. But a) there is no suggestion in the OP that this is a gui program; b) so what if it is.

By way of demonstration, I suspended my browser after typing that last paragraph and the resumed it a couple of minutes later to type this one. And ``""'**NOTHING BAD HAPPENED!**'""''


With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
