Hackers can gain access to Windows Registry and manipulate user passwords, DNS settings, access rights or
others features that they may need in order to accomplish their objectives. One simple method for loading an
application at startup is to add an entry (Key) to the following Registry Hive:

A.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\hardware\\windows\\start

B.
HKEY_LOCAL_USERS\\Software\\Microsoft\\old\\Version\\Load

C.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Microsoft\\Default

D.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\CurrentVersion\\Run
