Maybe i'm being just daft or something , but i cant get the auto start after reboot to work.I checked the Auto Startup in MySignal, rebooted the the machine and My Signal started but did not connect.It was waiting for me to press the connect button.
Alchamy , you suggested that :
If you want to do it straight from windows, uncheck the "display progress while connecting" box in the connection settings and add a shortcut to the connection in your startup folder.

I did the unchecking of "display progress while connecting" box in the connection settings.However I dont see how I can "add a shortcut to the connection in your startup folder".

You can add a shortcut to pretty much anything to your startup folder.. in this case, create a shortcut to the MySignal app, [COPY] it (e.g., option click -> copy), navigate to your startup folder (presuming WinXP), e.g. "C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" and [PASTE] it in there.

Then, on your next start the MySignal app will start ..which, in turn, has been setup to autoconnect ..et voila!

When selecting Auto Startup in MySignal, it will add a shortcut to your Startup folder, but what happens is some people for one reason or another delete that shortcut even if only temporary and MySignal will now not add another as the Registry tells it that one is already there :)
