automatic start on boot-up

When I first downloaded YoWindow, it automatically started when I booted up Windows. Now it only starts if I click the icon. How do I get it back to automatic?

You can put a shortcut to the program into your systems startup folder.

Rightclick the desktop icon, and create shortcut (this will be on the desktop)
drag it to your start button (winXP) and keep it till the menu opens, drag it over 'all programs' and keep it till the menu opens, drag it over 'Startup' and drag it sideways into that folder when it opens, release the mouse button.

Alternatively you can right click the start button and open 'all users' and got into 'programs', 'startup' and copy it there.
