[Twisted Soul]

Hey whats the code to get a C++ program to copy its self to.

So far ive done some looking into this topic and i have to some how get it in these parts.

All users: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run

Current user only: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Run

SO what code do i need to enter for my program to copy its self into these registerys.

Or if i want to copy it to

C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Can anyone help? I cant seem to find the right code.

Any help would be Great!!

If you placed the exe file in the startup folder then that particular exe file will run when ever you restart system logged in under that particular user.....
