I don't know about multiprocessor, but I do know
where to get an executable packer.
http://www.nexus.hu/upx/
I used it to compress the binaries in the popular puzzle
game DOSArena. Wanna play? Come to my web page.

Anyway, it'd be nice if spawn*() supported multitasking
and/or multiprocessor, spawning the process in the
background. Or does it already?
