This is what I have so far but I cant figure out how to set DWORD values:

CLASS USER
CATEGORY !!categoryname
KEYNAME "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects"
POLICY !!policyname
EXPLAIN !!explaintext
VALUENAME "VisualFXSetting"
? VALUEON NUMERIC 2
? VALUEOFF NUMERIC 1
END POLICY
END CATEGORY

[strings]
categoryname="Desktop Settings"
policyname="Turn Off All Visual Effects"
explaintext="This policy disables all Windows XP visual effects"


Any help would be appreciated!

Nevermind. I guess that is correct. Problem is you cant change that
registry key by hand. While all the visual effects boxes are unchecked the
actual effects remain active. Even a reboot is not resetting the effects.
Is there something else wrong?
