Creating log on dialog box?

Hi guys,

Im looking for help with creating a disclaimer pop up saying something along
the line of "By logging on to this network you are agreeing to adhere to the
rules and policies of this company, if you accept click yes."

Clicking yes will then proceed with log on, clicking no will return you to
the log on screen.

I'm pretty sure Windows NT 4.0 let you do this or something similar but I
cant seem to find anything on XP, although I can make a log on script to work
with the group policy and point it in the direction of a java script but i'm
60% sure their's an easier way!

Many thanks in advance for any help!

Same as your MULTIPOST in microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize

LegalNoticeCaption and LegalNoticeText are probably what you want.

You get a message box with OK.

LegalNoticeCaption
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Description
Specifies the caption (title bar text) for the message box that appears
after a user presses CTRL+ALT+DEL to log on.

LegalNoticeText
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Description
Specifies the text in the message box that appears after a user presses
CTRL+ALT+DEL to log on.
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/2000/server/reskit/en-us/regentry/12323.asp

LogonPrompt
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Description
Specifies a message for the Log On to Windows dialog box. By default, there
is no logon prompt message.
