(slightly OT, just about detecting logged on users) We use this in a .js 
script to shut down machines that have been woken on LAN for running WPKG and 
stuff but only shut them down if no one has logged on meanwhile.  Works even 
when someone is not using explorer.exe as a shell for whatever reason:

if (GetObject("winmgmts://./root/cimv2").ExecQuery("select UserName from 
Win32_ComputerSystem where not UserName is null").Count > 0) {
// Someone is logged in
}

Cheers,
Malte
