Delete IE Icon from Desktop

[uli_glueck]

Hello,

I have to install IE 5.5 on my users pcs cause some Progs need it for whatever.
Now I tried to delete the IE Icon from the desktop but the Icon is still there.
(All "Internet Exploerer.lnk" files are deleted.)

What else is to do to delete the icon from the desktop?

System in WinNT4

thanks in advance for any help

Many thanks for reply FED.
It helps me only  a little cause I have to allocate IE to 80 pcs.
That means 80 times clicking after allocation.
Do you maybe know the registry key?

I don't know the key uli but hopefully someone will.

Are you on drugs?

? IE is free... dude. so why do u need a key for?

I don't need a registration key. I need the registry key to delete the Icon on the desktop!

FEDs question seems to be entitled.;-)

I worked it out:



This reg key has to be changed to 0x00100024 (bzw. dezimal 1048612):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{871C5380-42A0-1069-A2EA-08002B30309D}\ShellFolder\Attributes=

and this one to be deleted:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\{FBF23B42-E3F0-101B-8488-00AA003E56F8}
