How depends upon the operating system. If it is a simple program, then with Windows, you add it to your Start menu. If Linux, you can add it to /etc/rc.local. If it is a service, then for Windows you add it to the Services list to be autostarted. If Linux you add it to the rc.<runlevel> files with the chkconfig command (as root or sudo). Read the Linux chkconfig manpage for more details.

As for Windows programming / GUI programming, that is another topic entirely, and I suggest you create a new thread for that! :-) And good luck!
