Yes you are right James the msgbox was waiting for me on the desktop.  But How
do I make it appear on the login screen?  

Also anyone with any insight on the registry?

Actually, that's not true.  They can make such calls if they have
appropriate access to the desktop (through a setting in the service control
manager).  If they don't then they'll run in their own WinStation.  If they
do, then they have access to the default desktop - try running your WinVNC
patch, connecting to it, then logging in.  The MsgBox will be waiting on the
logged-in desktop for you!

Cheers,
