Hi xplod,

To do this you need to change some registry settings.

Extract the reg.7z attachment within the 'Explorer Vista' script.

Once extracted, open the reg file called 'explorer.reg' (Use notepad or similar)

Locate the line '[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\WB-software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\HideDesktopIcons\ClassicStartMenu]' and add the following lines underneath:

"{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001
"{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001

the first line will remove the 'My Computer' desktop icon
the second line will remove the 'Internet Explorer' desktop icon.

Once the lines have been added, use 7-zip to compile and add back into the script.

desktop.ini is a real file.
Windows generates them (sometimes, I do not know why).
Whenever I deleted such a desktop.ini, I never encountered a problem.

So I think you can delete it w/o danger.
