Put Enternet 300 In My Startup Folder?

The IT department in my university has installed enternet 300 on all of our pc's - we have to use this to log into the inter/intranet on the campus. According to them, it is not possible to have the computer automatically log onto the system. I looked into the program, however, and found a place to put ip addresses, account and password. Note: the IT department in my school works hard but it not known for developing complete knowledge about the platforms they work on - there are many.

Is this correct is it possible to put the program in the startup folder and let the computer log on automatically? To be honest, even though most systems on campus us win 2000, I thought win 2000 had the ability to do this (log on to a network) natively, so I am a little puzzled as to why they have this on the computer.
