Automated windows script?

Hello, I was curious to know if there is a script out there that could automated certain programs. For example, with a click of a button I could check for Adware updates and run a scan using Adaware program, then next run my system mechanic, and afterwards run my diskeeper all at once. Is there a program out there that is capable of doing this? Thanks

Thanks. I tried it and it does open up the program but it doesn't actually perform the action. For example, it opens up Adaware but it doesn't automatically scan. How can I make it execute specific tasks? Thanks.

http://www.hitmanpro.nl/hitmanpro/i... I've never used this, and it would seem that from there homepage there intent on selling you stuff, but i've spoken to people that like it. Basicly it includes a bunch of anty spyware and anty virus programs i think all built into the one program.
It is worth noting that spybot search and distroy does have some handy commandline options, you can find them in help.
