I think there is another key at
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunService

I suppose you can even use the win.ini file located in the system folder for launching your app, but that is more open than the registry.

that HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunService key is it only for NT machines?

I believe in win 9x normal applications can run as services, but in NT this is a totally different story. There are no hidden places to start your program. They are known for a very good reason: to prevent people from installing viruses. What makes you want to hide it though?
