XP like login screen for W2K

[aurgathor]

Is it possible to have an XP like login screen (i.e. just clicking on icons) for W2K? If yes, how?

TIA

PS: needed for kids

I seem to recall having seen some hack like this somewhere... I don't recall where though. I would try googling it. Alternatively, you could just use autologon - would that work?

[aurgathor]

Autologon wouldn't be good with 4 kds who could use it.

Ah.... well how old are they? Our family uses the classic logon even on XP and hasn't ever had a problem. Could your kids just remember to type in their name at the logon prompt?

Not exactly what your looking for, but it'd make it look nicer. http://www.frontmotion.com/FMLogin/index.htm
