The information in this article applies to:

You can install a legal warning message that appears when you sign on
to Windows NT, informing you that you do not want unauthorized people
to sign on to your system. This warning message will be displayed when
you press CTRL+ALT+DEL to log on. The system administrator can create
this message.

To set up this message, go to this key:

   SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Winlogon

The names of these values are "LegalNoticeCaption" and "LegalNoticeText"
and the values are REG_SZ string values.

When you log on, the system will look for these keys. If either of
these values are not NULL, the system will display a dialog box
containing the specified strings. The logon process will not continue
until the user acknowledges this information.
