These are MS-DOS commands.  These commands are built into command.com (the 
command interpreter). This means the command is an internal command and is 
available in all versions of MS-DOS, Windows 95,
Windows 98, Windows NT, and Windows 2000.

CD (Change Directory) is a command used to switch directories in MS-DOS. In 
this case, change from the current directory (probably the root directory 
-- C:\WintNT) to the System32 directory which is located one level beneath 
the WinNT directory.

REN (Rename file or directory) is a command used to rename files and 
directories from the original name to a new name. In this case, rename the 
logon.scr (long script file) to logon.bak (as logon backup file name).

COPY command allows the user to copy one file from one source to another. 
In this case, copy the existing cmd.exe file as new logon.scr file. Copy 
operations will overwrite (destroy) existing file names. That is, you could 
copy cmd.exe right over logon.scr without saving logon.scr as a backup file 
first.
