Gaurav,
ReplyDeleteI tried replicationg this behavior on my machine but failed.
I have downloaded a logon theme from the site listed in your post. Then I renamed the default logonui.exe to zune.exe and stored it on my local disk (:d). I followed your instructions and modified the UIHost properties from default to D:\Software\Windows XP Logon Screens\Zune\zune.exe. But when I tried Win+L, there was no change.
I am on my company domain with an XP machine. Please suggest.
