That's just like politicians do 
*No politics intended 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

Since when do politicians really make politics?

I can't see how B&Q could possibly imagine coming out of this episode looking good. OK, the initial manager was panicked into taking a bad decision but then for the board to back him up after presumably meeting to discuss the issue and then go on declare it is a lifetime ban?
If this is true and the news became more widespread, you could imagine a popular campaign against B&Q with people photographing every possible H&S concern throughout its stores. It could escalate into a shitstorm quite rapidly.

Have you ever met the British? Apathy rules.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

That explains a lot: TV Brits always carry a brelly - and now we know the storms they expect.
With CP, you learn something every day. If they had a sunny season, I'd make sure I only visit the islands then - they do have sunny seasons, don't they ?

The UK doesn't really have any seasons when it comes to the weather, it is (I believe) the most unpredictable and changeable in the world.
Probably why the British spend so much of their time talking about the bloody weather.

I've been all over the Internet and can't find a fix that is relevant to my issue or that has fixed it. It is minor and should be able to be lived with, but both users of the computer are over 70 and just want to click an icon and type in a password.
Got the computer because one of the users couldn't login due to a borked profile entry in the registry. Sorted this and all was good, then installed the million and one Windows Updates available and the issue arose. This is Windows 7 Home Premium, so no advanced tools available that your Professional/Enterprise/Ultimate versions have.
So what is the issue? The Welcome Screen when the computer is turned on now no longer has both user icons. It has the last user to login and Other User icons.
I have checked that the following settings are as expected. Need Ctrl+Alt+Del to login not required / Users need to enter password is set / Remember last user to login not set / and any of the others listed.
I have used the dialogs available via netplwiz and control userpasswords2 and also via the Registry keys below.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
Anyone got an idea? I'm stumped and about to return it and advise they have to type a username cause Microsoft wants them too.

No, the account is active and I can login without issue. It is just the Welcome Screen that has stuffed up.

That both accounts are active and members of the Administrators group. Added both users to the Users group (as another fix advised will get them back on the Welcome Screen) with
net localgroup Users Waz /add
Both users have correct settings in Registry ProfileList and also user directories in the C:\Users directory. I can login as both of them.

And what if you do not include these accounts into the Administrators group? Only the Users one.

continue;

No. I found details about it here[^], here[^] and another way to supposedly fix it here[^].
Thanks for trying again.

Sorry, this may be useless, I hardy touch windows but try opening the policy editor for local policies and checking out the options in there, you're probably likely to find it.
Fairly sure thats where all the applicable settings where last time I had an issue like this, Fairly sure I've had a security suite kill me with something like that.

Being serious, it may not be possible, if it's caused by updates. Probably done by M$ in the name of 'simplifying things'.
You can get programs that custom-make your login screen[^], so that might be an option. Obviously it might be a security risk too, but that's up to your discretion.
Give changing Fast User Switching on/off as well. That might have something to do with it.
Another hacky workaround is to design an auto-login program that logs both users in on PC bootup, in some way - that will make their icons be specified explicitly as per the lock screen design.

So, a while back I started listening through Rolling Stone magazine's list of 500 Greatest Albums of All-Time[^] starting with #500 and working my way down to #1. I'm on #458 (Elton John's Tumbleweed Connection) right now. Prior to that was The Drifters' Golden Hits, preceded by Hole's Live Through This. Needless to say, it's been a strange day at work...
I haven't skipped a single song, although I've definitely wanted to a few times. Yesterday, I listened to Metal Box from Public Image Ltd, which was probably the most difficult album to get through so far... Just an awful album. 
Has anyone else ever done this? I got the idea from a friend I went to college with.
The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill
America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde
Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin
