How can the linux OS run script automatically at startup? (say, "ipchains -F")

I know that windows can do such thing by editing autoexec.bat. What is the solution for linux?

Usually in your startup scripts in /etc/rc.d and you can specify certain programs in your rc.local file..

What distro do you run ?
