Hiding user names on the login screen

I am running MDK9.0 and I was wondering if there was a way to hide a user on the login screen. Just as root doesn't have an icon or name I want to be able to hide other users.

Go to the Control Centre (not the Mandrake Control Centre on the taskbar), under system you will find an enrty for "login manager". You can add users to the "no show" list.
