Default [Answered] How to show a message to user just after he/she logon?

Can someone help me how to show a message to user just AFTER he/she logon to the computer? (just the way we can show a message to user BEFORE he/she logon, through the 'legal notice message' in registry).
I am using win xp pro and want to display a message to every user after he logons to my computer. Can someone help me how to do this from registry?

I am waiting for reply, and shall be very thankful.

Don't know why , but my I.E. freezes for a few seconds when i close that link Merlin.


@Biohazard , maybe you can add a shortcut to a text file to the startup folder in youre startmenu..

Genius! Or even a custom web page (local) added to your start menu will do the trick!

I can write ya a web page with an embedded JavaScript that will open, display an alert window, and close (hopefully, depending if you have FireFox or not), then, just place it in the startup folder like Hengis suggested.
