Thanks for sparing some time.  I was looking through the registry and found
that this works as long as you are logged in as the user you want to
autostart the program for:

def autostartProgram(name, location):
  os.system(r'reg add HKCU\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run /v
%s /t REG_SZ /d %s' % (name, location) )
