Windows 7 desktops get second "Change Network Password" option. Can it be disabled?

Hi everyone.

 

I've set up a Windows 7 desktop pool.  When users need to change their passwords, they hit CTRL+ALT+INSERT, and are prompted with two options.  The first one says "Change network password" and the second one shows their account name.  Our technical team all have their staff accounts, an elevated account, and a basic account with no group membership for testing.  So, having never seen such a prompt, we figured the main "username" option was only for our main account.  It turns out that the other "Change Network Password" option doesn't even work, which is frustrating to say the least.  So I started digging a little and discovered that this option can be turned off by disabling the authentication provider.  But I want to make sure that if I do this, it won't break SSO.  Can anyone shed some light on this?

 

Thanks for any and all help!
