I created of Profile template, saved it to the Network,
and put the location in the profile path of the user. All
is well except that Win 2000 keeps putting the Outlook
Express Icon in the taskbar. Any ideas on where this is
coming from and how to get rid of it? TIA
 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active
Setup\Installed Components\{44BBA840-CC51-11CF-AAFA-
00AA00B6015C} and delete the key there called "StubPath".
If you check the details of it, you will see that it gets
called by Windows directly whenever a new user logs in.
This is especially useful for programs that, like Outlook
Express, you cannot uninstall without creating bigger
problems.

For programs that you uninstalled and yet aren't, you can
look in two good hiding places:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersio
n \Run and
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersi
o n\Run for the culprits.



HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \Software\Microsoft\Active
Setup\Installed Components\{7790769C-0471-11D2-AF11-
00C04FA35D02}


these two registry keys, need to have the stubpath
eliminated. that should keep it from poping up. eliminate
it from the profile. then kill the reg keys. that will
help.
