Registry Editing Tips

Display A Logon Text Banner

If you are using multiple logon, you might want to create a banner-like text caption dialog upon logon.

Crank up your registry editor and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WinLogon (Windows 9x) or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Winlogin (Windows NT)
Create a new string value called LegalNoticeCaption and what you type as the value will appear as the menu menu bar caption. Create another string value called LegalNoticeText and again, the value of this string will appear as the caption ot the dialog box

Now this banner will appear whenever anyone logon to the computer. It can be used to include some information on the computer as well as warnings or reminders.
