Someone once said (and I paraphrase), "There is seldom technological solutions for behavioral problems."

Because most end users without technical knowhow prefer to be ignorant as opposed to educated, they have learned to reset a computer using the most ungraceful methods when they see a locked screen on the computer they want to use. Some of the time, these locked screens are a result of IT remoting in to the computer for one reason or another. We thought that maybe a visual cue would alert end users and perhaps change their behavior. That being said, is there a way to change the background color of the locked screen when IT remotes in a computer?
