I have a cable internet connection which requires some sort of dialup procedure. I've managed to do the easy part that when you open the file to connect, it automatically attempts to connect instead of you having to enter the username / password and pressing a button.
Now here comes a part that I don't know about. I want Windows to run this file on start-up so I won't even have to worry about opening it. I have opened the registry editor and went to the correct path (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/.../Run) but it is a little trickier than I expected to add a boot file to the registry, as it asks for all sorts of binary information. How would I go about making a correct reference for this file, that I've conveniently located at c:\connect.lnk
This is a shortcut to the actual file or w/e that I have to open to connect, if there is a quicker workaround in Windows to refer to the network connections then let me know, otherwise the shortcut would work fine I think.
Thanks!
P.S.: Windows XP Home SP2 if anybody asks.
