You can put a shortcut to that program in the Startup folder, inside Start->Programs.

Harry got to it before I did. Its Windows: simple drag-and-drop action is all you need.

if you don't like that you can also add it to the registry in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run

BTW this is where most spywhere is started, and editing your registry could cause your system to stop working, etc.....
