I was able to modify the keyboard filter driver from sysinternals.com to
change some keys to CTRL+ALT+DEL and get the “NT security dialog box”. Now
its very awkward that it just changes some aticular keys to CTRL, ALT and
DEL. What I’m looking for is to ma some articular key combinations to
CTRL+ALT+DEL so that otherwise the keys work normal. I don’t know whether
the architecture of keyboard driver will allow me to do that.
Thanks,
Sajeev.

Maybe you can do that writing a customized MSGINA.DLL. I know that that dll
is invoked when you press Ctrl-Alt-Del. I don’t know much about it but in
the past i found an article talking about how the operations that are
started when you press Ctrl-Alt-Del can be customized. On the net you can
find some stuff about it.
