Hi folks

I would appreciate if anybody any can guide me on how can I control the start (load) of the windows 7 desktop?

This is the specific scenario:

After turning on a machine and log on, I would like to start a specific program (that I would develop) that needs to interact with the user.

Then after input some typing some basic info (and only after this input) start (load) the Windows Desktop in a normal way.
I don't know which API's/knowledge areas of Windows 7 to explore or look for, or if there is some settings I can control, but in any case I would appreciate any help or hint you may provide

Thanks

Why doing so? And why before the desktop? Just to block passing around your application? But if there is no desktop, where are you typing in? All the windows are children of the desktop, you know...
