I am thinking of a way to modify the "shutdown" dropdown menu when user hits
ctrl+alt+del and clicks "shutdown".
There are "logoff...", "shutdown" and "restart" on my machine.
Is it possible to have only "logff" and "restart" only? I don't want people
to shutdown my machine but in case system hangs they should be able to
reboot.
If I disable the local security policy of "allow user to shutdown", user
cannot reboot as well.

Thanks.
