Add the username you wish to hide as a DWORD value. Set the value to 0
(zero). This will prevent the user from showing up on the welcome screen.
You will need to press CTRL-ALT-DEL twice at the logon screen to get the old
Win2K logon, to be able to logon to the account you've hidden.
Adding a username and setting the value to 1 will cause that user, such as
Administrator, to show up on the Welcome screen as well.

One thing I noticed, Kelly, is that if you hide a username from the welcome
screen, it also hides that users documents folder in explorer as well - just
a note.
