Does anyone know how to do this? I tried modifying the background image through the registry, but it doesn't take affect unless I log out and back in. What I want is simple (I hope!). I have a bunch of pc's that use autologon to log in a generic account. The password will be changed once a month which means the account has to log out and I want to both send a popup message to the client and change the background the day before to make sure nobodies using the pc at the time. All this will happen automagically, because I'm not going to do this by hand once a month. So obviously a perl script to do it comes to mind. The screen popup, passwd change and reboot I can do easy enough (I think). But the background change I cant do and extensive googling finds nothing. Although I found a lot of info on the history of perl. Try searching for "perl win32 background" and see what you get :-)
