How can I execute an item when gnome starts up? I thought about adding it to the .bashrc file but that would execute even when SSH or any other login.

Use the gnome-control-center. From there goto sessions and add whatever item as a startup item.

You can also just execute gnome-session command and go straight to the session manager (although tor's method still works fine):
# gnome-session

will the program startup after login or at the login screen?

After. If you want it to startup before you can put it in /etc/init.d/

Ok thanks... I hope I'll find this thread again when I come in need of it, when I reinstall some linux distro.

Can't that be a security hole? What if you make a brute forcer launching at the login screen?

Well... maybe? But how are you going to do that, if you can't even login in the first place?
