[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserLis t]

dwords:
%username% = hex:0 dec:0 = nolisting
%username%(+anything) = hex:10000 dec:65536 = nolisting
%username% = hex:1 dec:1 = listing

other interesting stuff found during testing:(for xppro)

if [X] account is disabled = not listed
if no regular administrators available, builtin is listed

if regular user of member one of these groups:

administrators = listed
guests = listed
power users = listed
users = listed

backup operators = not listed
helpservicesgroup = not listed
network configuration operators = not listed
remote desktop users = not listed
replicator = not listed

members of no groups = not listed
only members of custom groups = not listed

if safe mode, only <= two administrators are listed
appears to alphabetically scanning names here:
HKLM\SAM\SAM\Domains\Account\Users\Names\
and picking the first two that are in the administrator group

(safemode) if all administrators are disabled = none listed
logon to the builtin administraor only via 2xctrl+alt+del

100 users can be listed in the welcome screen
probably alphabetically scanning for names (1st 100)

if security policy = deny logon locally = not listed
