SYMPTOMS
After you upgrade to Microsoft Windows Vista, Winlogon notification packages do not work.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because Winlogon notification packages are not supported in Windows Vista.



RESOLUTION
If your environment depends on a Winlogon notification package, contact your independent software vendor (ISV) for a replacement. If you are using a custom Winlogon notification package that you created, you can create a new solution by using Service Control Manager (SCM) notifications or the System Event Notification Service (SENS).
