i think this is very difficult, because you may need to get original password of windows which is very difficult. and also how will you know about the images used in user accounts?

why don't you try a simple like the following with your own password?

Password_Protect()
; Dated: Sep-23-2008
; WB: ChromeFan
Func Password_Protect()
    $Total_Counts = 3
    $Try = 1
    $File_Access =  "Disallowd"
    $Your_Password =  "ChromeFan"
    ConsoleWrite(""    & @CRLF)
    $InputBox_1 = InputBox( "Access Protected",  "Please Enter your password (Case sensitive)" & @CRLF & @CRLF & "My Program Name (Example)"& @CRLF & @CRLF &"Author: Your Name",  "",  "*")
    If $InputBox_1 == $Your_Password Then
        $File_Access =  "Granted"
        MsgBox(64,  "Password Accepted",  "Welcome," & @CRLF & @CRLF & @UserName & @CRLF & @CRLF & @ComputerName)
    Else
        Do
            $InputBox_2 = InputBox( "Access Denied",  "The Password provided by you is wrong."& @CRLF & @CRLF &"Please Reinter your password."& @CRLF & @CRLF &"Author: Your Name",  "",  "*")
            If $Your_Password = $InputBox_2 Then
                $File_Access =  "Granted"
                MsgBox(64,  "Password Accepted",  "Welcome," & @CRLF & @CRLF & @UserName & @CRLF & @CRLF & @ComputerName)
                ExitLoop
            EndIf
            $Try += 1
        Until $Try = $Total_Counts
    EndIf
    If $File_Access =  "Allowed" Then
        MsgBox(48, "Access Granted", "Some Text")
    Else
        MsgBox(48, "You can not access this program!",  "You have tried more then 3 times to enter the correct password."&@CRLF&"But the password was always wrong."&@CRLF&"Sorry! Program will now close.")
        Exit
    Return
    endif  
EndFunc ;==>_Password_Protect()

@HiSoftDev...You can find the images in the following folder:

XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account Pictures

Vista: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\Default Pictures

You can make a GUI very similar to the one you posted. Try it out...Post some code..

not to be off topic but why do u want that to startup everytime you run an app? o_0, there's always prevention software and firewalls... unless it's just for kicks hahah :-D
