How do I change Create Account Link in Joomla?

I just installed a Joomla 1.6 Stable release onto my webserver. However, whenever I try to create an account, it takes me down to: using-joomla/extensions/components/users-component/registration-form. How do I change the home-screen login form box to use a different page for the user-registration form?

I have looked online, and they talk about editing options in the Login Form Module, but I don't see a module called Login Form in my Modules list. Even on clean install with nothing touched.

**Note I am starting off with the sample data installed.

I also encountered this problem, so the decision was, the menu manager deleted all unnecessary. The problem is that the reference referred to the registration menu item "about joomla". PS I'm not Englishman, sorry for the spelling mistakes ...

If you look in the admin backend of 1.6 you will see that under Menus->About Joomla the Registration link you are clicking is a sub-menu of the Using Joomla! menu item. So this is why that link is being dynamically created with that URL.

To create a Registration form such as mysite.com/register then simply create a new registration form out of that sample contents menu tree. To do this in the admin backend go to Menus/Your Menu/Add New Menu Item Then when the Menu Manager pops up to create a new menu item click the select button next to the Menu Item Type and select Users Manager->Registration Form.

Hope this helps.
