Hi Krishna,

You can do so with the Start Before logon feature.

The following link describes the same:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/vpn_client/cisco_vpn_client/vpn_client500_501/release/notes/51client.html#wp1568402

You can enable teh same as follows:

VPN Client > options > Windows logon properties > check the checkbox of "enable start before logon".

Hope this helps.
