We offer a password reset webpage for users to reset their passwords and unlock their accounts.

What I'd like to do is modify the Windows dialog box that says that their account is locked out. I'd like it to display the webpage address to the user when they get locked out.

Is there a registry hack or setting that will allow me to modify that dialog box with customized text?

Or is that a fixed dialog box from a DLL or something??? Thanks.

Sorry, I was not successful in finding anything about how to change that error message. I searched all over Google for Group Policies, registry hacks, and even tried to figure out what DLL contains the message but was unsuccessful.

There is a tool called Resource Hacker that could probably help you if you can find out which DLL or EXE has the dialog box.

Good luck!
