Remove Log off button

logoffremovewindows-server-2008-r2

I am using a server with Windows Server 2008. I don't want anyone to log off, because it would stop very important programs.
But I can't change the Log Off button to anything (the drop down menu is grey), and thus I can't disabled it (I already tried the gpedit.msc thing, it doesn't seem to work…).
Note that I can't log off or restart the server.
Is there a way to solve this problem ?

Why not set those "important programs" to run as services rather than as programs as the logged in user? This would have them running whether anyone is logged in or not logged in at all.
