Hi,
You may apply the wallpaper on your desktop normally as you do. To apply this wallpaper as the default wallpaper (so that it appears before you log-on to the machine), fire up the registry editor (Start/Run REGEDIT) and navigate to HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop and on the right pane, double click on the string value called 'Wallpaper' and type in the exact path to the desired wallpaper (in your case it would be C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper\Azul.jpg assuming that windows is installed on C: drive) Click ok and exit registry editor. Restart your machine to see the change. I think this would make the wallpaper appear 24/7 -- Anando Microsoft MVP- Windows Shell/User http://www.microsoft.com/mvp http://www.mvps.org Folder customizations http://newdelhi.sancharnet.in/minku Protect your PC! http://www.microsoft.com/protect " wrote in message ...

with genuine addresses in your newsgroup posts you are sure to be getting
lot's of 'fan-mail' shortly. As to your problem, without really knowing this for sure, it's MS helpful way (graphical feedback if you like) to let you know you are 'shutting things down' (even if it's only for a short while during restart). Kind'o like in everyday life. When you yourself 'shutdown' for the night you also turn off the lights, don't you? (I guess) :-)) " wrote in message ...
