Should be a "Custom Text" button on the left hand side of the 3D Text Settings panel...

there is but i want to set the custom text to something other then Microsoft Windows. when i change it in the screen saver settings it only changes it for the loged in user. when another user logs onto that computer the custom texts is Microsoft Windows. I dont want to have to set the custom text for everyone that logs on a computer. i would like to set it once and no mater what users logs in it is the same custom text.
