Please don't do that, if you care about your users at all, and any of them  
might use a non-English version of Windows. Programs that put anything in  
the above location (or install themselves into C:\Program Files, or things  
like that) are really annoying, and the author is plain stupid.

Any decent installer is able to register a program so it runs on startup  
(InnoSetup, by example). Anyway, if you want to it it yourself, see:
