Automated windows logon

[Esmo2000]

I want to develop a program that would permit me to sign on a computer at the logon screen. I assume that a windows service running with system permissions would be running in time to actually execute this, but I have no idea what I should research to interact with the logon screen. All help would be appreciated! Did I post well? Rate it! Did I post badly? Rate that too!

I'm not entirely sure if this is what you want, but allow me to introduce you to my friend GINA[^], the Graphical Identification and Authentication component. Crappy acronym, I know. Share and enjoy. Sean
