Hello, I was wondering if anyone has ever figured out a way to get around having to press CTRL+ALT+DEL to log into Windows - or more specifically, bring me to the user login screen (where I enter my username and password). I am not speaking of an automatic login, but instead a way to only have to press one key instead of three (with a normal keyboard), which would of course be pre-programmed as CTRL+ALT+DEL.

I ask just for the sake of curiosity, and it happens once in a while that I do not wish to set my coffee down in order to log in to my machine at work :)

As a more practical reason, it could also be that someone with a disabiliy may only have the use of one hand, und therefore the combination CTRL+ALT+DEL (at least on my German keyboard) would be next to impossible with the use of only one hand.

Thanks to anyone who wishes to share this secret with me.

What version of Windows?

Thanks for the reply, mjc.

Actually, it'd be cool if it worked with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, but my work computer is running Windows XP Pro (SP 3 v.3264)...

Even cooler would be if it worked before Windows is even running (like somehow integrated with the BIOS), but when it is dependent on Windows it would then need to run as a service, since I won't be logged in when I need it most.
