Default Is There A Way to Customize The Unlock Computer / Login Box Location?

Dear Windows XP Users,

Is there a way to cutomize the location of the dialog box that appears
when your computer is locked? By default it appears in the center of
the screen and you can move it around, but is there any way of making
it appear in the upper left (for example) by default? Quite frankly,
the reason is silly - to not have it block the wallpaper graphic, but
I thought I would ask anyway. Thank you very much in advance!

Kevin

Yes... Customize the GINA but don't bother?

Err... Just to see the wallpaper? Have fun with that. *grins* It IS
do-able... You CAN if you have the know-how, time, and resources. If you do
manage to do it (and don't forget to backup first - see the link at the end)
then let us know how it turns out.
