I can't get a program to auto run and load into the systray. Is there some permission that could be preventing this?

If I manually run the prog, it loads fine - only @ startup is the issue.

I've been unable to find anything to resolve this. I've also tried putting the prog in the startup folder and nothing. I have admin rights on box as well. There is no password, at this time, associated with this acct.

... odd, very odd.

TIA!

What's the program? Have you tried creating an entry for it in the Run key in the Registry? (I can give you the entire path if you don't know it.)

No, I haven't tried putting into the Run key in the registry. If you can provide the path, I can give it a try. Thanks!
