I want a guide to some OS-Specific issues (mainly for Windows)

1- I want to make my application run at OS startup.
2- I want to add a system tray icon for my application.

That you do when you "pack" your application for deployment using an installer.

Actually, I need a good installer creator, please.

Have you looked at QSystemTrayIcon ?

since you seem to work under widows, have a look at NSIS: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/

Ii have to correct my first post, i read it fast and i was thinking at quick-launch instead of system tray (fatjuicymole corrected that thanks)

Thumbs Up for NSIS, i used it in the past, it's nice
Also, there was NSInStaller (an GUI for creating NSIS scripts), but i don't think that the project is continued
