If you are on XP, you simply (hah) need to "Set Program Access and Defaults"\nThe link to this may be in your start menu, your programs, or your accessories / system tools link.

Do what moonsmagicdust said.\n\nSounds like you are using windows xp. You will get the taskbar on pressing ctrl+alt+del only if you go to control panel, go to user accounts, click on "change the way users log on or off", dont choose any options in there, if selected any option unselect it.\n\nThis will help you to start using the ctrl+alt+del keys.\n\nAlternate is press right mouse button on start bar and choose "Task Manager".\n\nHope this helps.

I know of a way, but I woult not even bother to tell you that, unless to get points here.\n\nIts very dangerous to mess with those system files. You might screw up the system. It was a little safe with Windows 95/98 and the ME, but now with XP I never tried it but can expect results to be devastating if something goes wrong.\n\nhttp://www.theeldergeek.com/change_text_on_xp_start_button.htm

There is a utility available free, its called BootSkin. http://www.stardock.com/products/bootskin/ (It is far less complicated than the previous answer!!). There is also a program there to change the Welcome screen called LogonStudio. Cool.

If you're using Windows XP: Try going to Start > Control Panel   > Add or Remove Programs\n\nIf the program is on the list, click it, click "Change/Remove", and follow the on-screen instructions.
