You can create a shortcut in Start > Programs > Startup of the program that you want to run on start up ..

You can also create a Key in Registry like this :

Start > Run > Regedit <Press Enter>
Navigate to HKLM > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Run
Create a new DWord value here and name it Popchat and in the Value data, give the path of the executable proggy ...
