You're not. You are, however, joining of the ranks of people who are destabilizing their computers by doing this the WRONG way.

Turning an application into an appe WITHOUT having the source code to the application (the AS shell, NOT your script) is NOT TECHNICALLY VALID! Standard applications make calls to the OS that appe's are NOT allowed to call - doing so will causes crashes as you've put the OS in an invalid state!
