Is there a way to stop users from moving the Ctrl+Alt+Del screen all over the
place and actually "hiding" it from the next user? They drag it to the
bottom where it can't be seen and I want to keep it stationary. This may be
a registry issue which I am not afraid to try, but have no idea where to do
this. Thanks.

Try this:

First get your Task Manager in the position you want it to be in normally
then exit it.
Then, in either the "Run" box or "Command Prompt" type this command:

regedit /E C:\TASKMAN.REG "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\TaskManager"

This will create a file called Taskman.reg in the root of C drive with the
settings you want.

Then create a shortcut in the "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start
Menu\Programs\Startup" folder so that it will run on every system start.
The target of the shortcut is regedit.exe. Then edit this shortcut by going
to it's properties and typing into the commandline box the path to the
TaskMan.reg file after regedit.exe so it looks like this:

regedit.exe c:\Taskman.reg

then add an "/s" to the line between the "regedit.exe" and the
"C:\Taskman.reg" like this:

regedit.exe /s c:\Taskman.reg

so that when it comes down to running this shortcut, it will not ask you if
you want to import the registration file or not and will just go ahead and
import it without any user intervention.

This should reset the position and settings of the Task Manager each and
every time Windows starts.

Sorry (yet again I stumble) I thought that you meant Task Manager position
when you said Ctrl-Alt-del

I will have to find the reg key for the logon prompt but the process should
remain the same when (if) I do.
