Yes, it's a 'doze command.
Yes, it's part of the basic OS, not IE. (Has been since NT days).
Yes, there's also a Posix AT command:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/at.html
It interacts with the cron daemon. So in principle there's no reason why
there shouldn't be a cygwin at command to interact with the cygwin crond
entirely independently of the 'doze at command and task scheduler. I guess
nobody's ported it yet.
