* Dependency Walker.

Dependency Walker is a free utility that scans any 32-bit or 64-bit Windows

module (exe, dll, ocx, sys, etc.) and builds a hierarchical tree diagram of

all dependent modules. For each module found, it lists all the functions that

are exported by that module, and which of those functions are actually being

called by other modules. Another view displays the minimum set of required

files, along with detailed information about each file including a full path

to the file, base address, version numbers, machine type, debug information,

and more.

* Running at startup.

  HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

                Launches a program automatically when a particular user logs

                in. This key is used when you always want to launch a program

                when a particular user is using a system.

  HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

                Launches a program the next time the user logs in and removes

                its value entry from the registry. This key is typically used

                by installation programs.

  HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

                Launches a program automatically at system startup. This key

                is used when you always want to launch a program on a

                particular system.

  HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

                Launches a program the next time the system starts and removes

                its value entry from the registry. This key is typically used

                by installation programs.

  HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices

                Launches a service (a standard NT service or a background

                process) automatically at startup. An example of a service is

                a Web server such as Microsoft Internet Information Server.

  HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServicesOnce

                Launches a service (a standard NT service or a background

                process) the next time the system is started, then removes its

                value entry from the registry.

Values to registry on Windows XP can be added by:

  cmd> reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /v run.bat /t REG_SZ /d "path\to\run.bat"

  cmd> reg query HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run   <-- see what done
