Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version). The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The primary executable is named Slingo Deluxe-WT.exe. The setup package generally installs about 12 files and is usually about 13.8 MB (14,467,020 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows XP and Windows Vista (SP2). While about 96% of users of Slingo Deluxe come from the United States, it is also popular in Venezuela.
