hidden admin account is unlocked and enabled, how to show only in Safe Mode
I recently unlocked and enabled the hidden Administrator account in my copy of Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit. Right now the account shows up as a another account in the normal logon window, along with the other user icons. I would like to know if there is a way to hide this Administrator account from the logon window and only allow it to show up in the logon window when safe mode is enacted ( just like in Windows XP).

This doesn't work in Windows 7 and I doubt that it works in Vista. This answer merely makes the admin account inactive and it still won't show up on the logon screen in safe mode. I've been looking for something like this, but I can't find it. I want my users who aren't on non-domain machines to only have the choice of their own account presented at log on, but I still want to be able to log on as the admin if I need to. I wish the CTRL-ALT-DELETE option hadn't been taken away from vista/7.
