Hello, I need to eliminate the icons of My Computer,
Network Places and Recycle Bin of desktop.How I can do
this?

I am writing a script to do this which I will post as tip 7672 in the 'Tips &
Tricks' at http://www.jsiinc.com late this afternoon.

In the mean time:

You can cause My Computer (CLSID={20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}), My
Network Places (CLSID={208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}), and Recycle Bin
(CLSID={645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}) to be removed from the desktop by
setting the {CLSID} Value Name, a REG_DWORD data type, to 1, at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\NonEnum.
If you configure the {CLSID} Value Name at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\NonEnum,
all users of the computer will be effected.

You can place the following in a logon script and run regedit /s desktop.reg

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\NonEnum]
"{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001
"{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001
"{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001
