If you\u2019re one of the latter group of people, someone from Finland appears to have been listening to your grievances. Now, you can use Kirjaudu (which means \u201clogon\u201d in Finnish) and click a large button on the application to change that old, boring logon screen into a beautiful background. There\u2019s no crazy installation process, no adware obligations, and no insanely long processes involved in simply making the switch.<\/p>\n<h3>The Problem Most People Face When Modifying Windows<\/h3>\n<p>The majority of computer users would like to turn their Windows installations into something more personalized, much like how you can do it with certain Linux distributions. Unfortunately, Microsoft doesn\u2019t really want people messing around with their graphic interface, and why code it into Windows when there are many third-party applications (some even free for download) that can do these things? We\u2019re not exactly sure why Windows doesn\u2019t let you do things like changing the Start button or logon screen on your computer.<\/p>\n<h3><b><a
