Other ways to start an App

[gvt]

I would like to know if there are other ways to start an application automatically with Windows. So far I have learned that one could use the Registry, a shortcut in the StartUp Folder or run the app as a service.
- Are there other tricks? For example, how do viruses work? I have read somewhere that a virus can start at a certain time or day. Do they use the Registry, a shortcut in the StartUp Folder, or do they run as a service?
- Is it possible to make some kind of association and, for instance, when Explorer or Iexplorer or Word starts, my application also starts?

Would appreciate if anyone could help.

Thanks.
