Red face Start Program before anything

Hi guys
I have made a program, and this program will run in i-cafes. This program detects when usb devices are removed, and then tell serverPC coz this would mean some1 wants to steal something...

Sometimes Ad-Aware or SpyBot ask you to run in next system start... and after you restart, it run before anything happens in the OS... i want do to like they do...

Well, the thing is that i want this program to start before anything, i made this program invisible in taskbar, invisible on tray, etc. etc. and i found these options...

Could some1 tell me where will my program run before anything occurs in winXP ?

option1:
making my program run as a service, by using SC command or by modifying my program to be a service...

option2:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\RunServices

option3:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\load

option4:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Userinit

option5:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Session Manager\BootExecute

Or maybe, another option you have?

You know, the i-cafe software (in client machines) starts before anything, but my program doesn't , so i want to foind out how the i-cafe program does that...
I don't think this program modified ginadll or something like that...

Well, sorry 4 making this post so long...
Hope your help, and have merry xmas & gr8 new yr !!
Thanks !!

For Win2000 (and I thinnk for WinXP too) Microsoft cannot say, how to start programs in proper order.

so, option1:
making my program run as a service, by using SC command or by modifying my program to be a service...

Have you tried any third party program to do so??

You can try this one or you could write some scripts to get that done

Smart Start up will help I think so you don't have to write no more..

See if it helps
