How to bypass explorer.exe on boot??

For security reasons I want to bypass explorer.exe on boot and
start an application directly. I do not need a GUI and don't want
the user to be able to start other apps. Any body know how to
achieve this?

No, if the registry is not available from explorer, I have no idea how an app would use it.

Windows XP Embedded can do it. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/xpehelp/html/xetskCreatingCustomShellComponent.asp?frame=true
