Hello all, I understand that GINA replacement is a very dark and scary place so any help will be much appreciated. All I want to do is add a couple of buttons to the Windows Login page such as Forgot my Password etc that launch Web Pages. I've tried running a background application using various methods but the only way I can reliably see of doing this is with GINA. I've tried the samples and they're not very easy to be honest. Whats the best way of doing what I'm trying? GinaHook? GinaStub? Edit the gina with a resource editor? Another method? I've compiled and installed the GinaHook sample onto Windows 2003 as a test and it breaks the system which I guess is to do with the WLX_VERSION_1_? code in the sample only going to Windows 2000? Like I said any help much appreciated. Thanks, Dave

The following weblink shows how to customize the Winlogon dialogbox (ignored in Windows Vista). http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa375198(VS.85).aspx Kellie.
