How can i add Peerguardian to the startup, coz i keep forgetting to run it!
I think it's the - HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Local machine\Run
in the reg isn't it? But what do i do from there?
On a sort of side issue, I set up a guest account, but zonealarm doesn't run on startup even though it is in the local machine startup, (i can't trust the user to do it manually), is this the same sort of thing?
someone here is bound to know, cheers!

You don't need to modify the registry. Every user has a start up folder. It's at start >All programs > start up. Drag or copy a shortcut for peerguardian and zone alarm into the folder, they will start at start up.

To do all users at one time, right click the start button>explore all users and go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup and copy the shortcut to that folder.

To undo, just delete the shortcut from the folder.

Big Thanks, worked like a treat, could have sworn there was registry editing to do.
