Current PC is WinXP Pro with Reg Vac running automatically on system startup.

Have recently (last week or two) gone in and changed the windows logon banner.  First did this by using Local Security Policy (i.e., Start>Control Panel> ... >Local security Policy).  However, after about a day or so, during logon noticed the banner was displaying the old previous banner again!  Repeated changing the banner in Local Security Policy.  Day or so later, again the old banner is back at logon.  Next tried changing the registry directly using regedit.

Went into HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\policies\system\ and directly changed the values for legalnoticecaption and legalnoticetext.  Once again, after a day or so, the old banner (i.e., legalnoticecaption, legalnoticetext) is back at logon!!  By now am tired of this routine!  Spoke with Microsoft certified specialist and she suggested the registry cleaning program (i.e., Reg Vac) is causing this problem.  At the next startup scan by Reg Vac, examined the 'undo' list at the end of the cleaning scan and noticed these two items near the end of the list:

HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SeCEdit\\:"TemplateUsed"

and

HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SeCEdit\\:"LastUsedDatabase"

Are these two items possibly related to the problem with the old banner reappearing?

Why is Reg Vac deleting these two (2) items anyway?

Please advise.

Thank you for your help.

   I have never heard of that problem.

   Where exactly is Local Security Policy?  I could not find it on my computer.

   You asked why RegVac removed those two entries.  My guess (I can't tell for sure without the entire entry) is that those entries are pointing to files that do not exist on your computer.  If you change the value so that it points to the proper file, they will not be removed.  If those entries keep showing up in RegVac, Windows or some other program is reentering the wrong values.  You can have RegVac skip those entries (see Help on how).

   If those two entries are causing that, please let me know and I will program RegVac to always skip them.
