OK, after much searching I found the following (which works) at:
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?question=156

-------------
Whenever a new language is selected, babel resets all the names to the 
settings for that language. In particular, babel selects the document's main 
language when \begin{document} is executed, which immediately destroys any 
changes to these symbolic names made in the prologue of a document that uses 
babel.

Therefore, babel defines a command to enable users to change the definitions 
of the symbolic names, on a per-language basis: \addto\captions<language> is 
the thing (<language> being the language option you gave to babel in the 
first place). For example:

\addto\captionsdanish{%
  \renewcommand{\contentsname}%
    {Indholdsfortegnelse}%
}
-------------

I also found out a way to get bibliography entries with no numbering:
\def\@bibitem#1{}

And how to add a line to the ToC:
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Hello world!}

Now I have another question. After reading in some website about how to 
change the bibliography, I decided to check the "scrbook.cls" file. There are 
a couple of lines that indicate there is an option to add the Bibliography to 
the ToC:

-------------
\DeclareOption{bibtotoc}
  {\AtEndOfClass{%
    \renewcommand*\bib@heading{%
  \addchap{\bibname}}
  }}
\DeclareOption{bibtotocnumbered}
  {\AtEndOfClass{%
    \renewcommand*\bib@heading{%
  \chapter{\bibname}}
  }}
-------------

I don't know how to use options (two days of LyX and LaTeX under my belt). 
Could anyone enlighten me?

Cheers,

Roberto
