Product Change Request:
Could you add a "Start with PC" option?

ex:
RegistryKey k = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", true);
k.SetValue("IgnitionKey", "\"" + Application.ExecutablePath.ToString() + ");

    Considerations: I don't know if the registry key will work properly with Windows 7. I will have to test this and make sure the UAC does not interfere. Also, it requires more permissions than a shortcut in the user startup, so that has to be taken into account when deciding the strategy.
