Are you working in a Windows Server 2003 or 2000 Active Directory Domain ?
If so this is set through a Group Policy Object on the OU your computer
account is in.

If you are standalone then use the local policy editor ( Start .. Run ...
mmc /a ... then add the Group Policy snap in.)
Open the Local Computer Policy \ Computer Configuration\Windows Settings
\Scripts node and you can add startup and shutdown scripts there.

Or just run gpedit.msc instead of mmc.exe. Another small note: The local policy
editor is not available for WinXP Home, only Pro.
