Take a look at [Win32::TaskScheduler's] [GetNextRunTime][2] and [GetMostRecentRunTime][3]. If I understand your problem, the UNIXy solution is to create a pid file (a file that contains the process id of the program) when you start and remove it when you end. If a pid file exists when you start, that means that the lsat process either died prematurely and needs to be cleaned up after or it is still running.
