Oh..OK. Sorry I did not understand. I looked around on my system and
could not find that tool. I have only had my Vista Ultimate installed
less that 24 hours so I am still learning the system. I tried RC1 for
a few weeks, I liked it and decided to do the upgrade plunge. There
are a few things I like and a few I don't. Desktop Cleanup on XP was
never one of my favorites. Sorry you can't find it. If I discover it
in the next few days I'll report back.

Not sure by what clean up unwanted icons means?
The Windows icons can be added/removed by right clicking the desktop,
choose personalize, and at the top of the left hand pane under Tasks,
click Change desktop icons. You can add/remove icons from here.
Any other icons would be added by yourself or a program and you just delete
them.

The original poster is referring to the "Desktop Cleanup' application
that would pop up in Windows XP from time to time at Start Up. I
comes up regularly on my lap top computer I use for travel when it
sits idle for a few weeks.

If it what I am thinking..you click on 'start' [ the BIG blue circle on the
far left bottom corner, go to 'all programs', then click on 'accesories',
then 'look down till u see 'system tools' and I found my [disk cleanup,
defrag, ect.] there..I hope this helps?
