Is this with the XP Welcome Screen type thing, or the older NT-style dialog? Changing anything on either will likely require some reshacking.

Its on windows XP. the computer locked screen

That doesn't really help me much, since there are two types of locked screen.

its the one you get when you press ctrl +alt + delete and then click lock computer

The old NT-style one. That in fact may be easier to skin, as it's a standard window. Therefore, it's possible to have a program running that looks for that window, and changes the stuff on it when it's showing.

No actually, if you use the old style login screen, pressing win key + L brings you to the same place as ctrl + alt + del => Lock Computer.

System32\msgina.dll

I think this fie is the one you are looking for. It has a couple of "locked computer" dialogs along with the classic logon screen etc.

Using reshacker, they are dialog 1400, 1500 and 1900 on my laptop (Windows XP SP2 English).

Hope this helps in some way.

On a side note, a look at dialog 2210 (Shutdown event tracker) shows the people at MS have a slight sense of humour
