Hello,

I have a custom written program which displays a license agreement. I
would like to run this program during the WinXP boot process as early
as possible. It is not currently a service, but I could make it one if
need be. I have tried to put the exe in the
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run section, but the
program doesn't run until the user has logged in and WinXP is at the
desktop.

I do not want to use the Winlogon legal notice text keys.


Any ideas?

Thanks

Use the Task Scheduler to run it at boot time.
