QUOTE(Greasy Sweet @ Mar 10 2007, 11:14 PM) I found an alternative to LogonXp, It's called FrontMotion. I have not tried this as I'm no longer using XP, but from the descriptions and screens from the site, it looks pretty promising. I have use the FontMotion , I encounter some problem that ONLY Administrator is only allowed to log in...Check out the Webpage, which has a neat little flash that displays the logons in action.  After installing this, try out Flahorn's Skin for FrontMotion called Energy Milestone 1 Author's instructions to install: How to install: 1.Download and instal FrontMotion Login 2.Unpack logon to the folder "Program Files\FrontMotion Login\Themes" 3.Open Control Panel in the classic view 4.Click on the FrontMotion Login, choose "Energy[your screen resolution]" 5.Go to "Advanced" tab and check "Use FMLogon (reguires reboot)" 6.Restart your Windows » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «  My computer is also used by sister, so other user did not manage to see their name, & not able to log in .... How to solve this problem ?? |

for those certain gadgets on sidebar not working, most probably because of you not installing the script (i'm not sure what exactly the name though
 ), i used to face this until i use another gadget  |

It most probably hiding behind ur start menu
Go to Control Panel > Taskbar and Start Menu > Check Autohide start menu then see if u can find it back then set "always on top" for the vista start button thingy |
