I found a wonderful freeware program called Nail It which allows you to tack
a window in the foreground. I would love to have it load automatically when
the computer boots. I have run msconfig but there are no provisions to add
items to the startup. Is there a simple way to do this? Thanks.
 
Hi

Find the program (.EXE) file in Windows Explorer, right click on it and select 'Copy'. Then - right click on the Start button and select 'Explore'. Expand the Programs folder and then click on the Startup folder. In the right hand pane - right click and select Paste.

In your start menu drag it to the "Startup" folder.
