Re: Disabling ALL quick launch Icons

If you're running Windows XP, you can enable the policy "Do not display any
custom toolbars in the taskbar" located in
User\Administrative Templates\Start Menu and Taskbar.

From the explain text: This setting affects the taskbar. The taskbar
includes the Start button, buttons for currently running tasks, custom
toolbars, the notification area, and the system clock. Toolbars include
Quick Launch, Address, Links, Desktop, and other custom toolbars created by
the user or by an application. If this setting is enabled, the taskbar does
not display any custom toolbars, and the user cannot add any custom toolbars
to the taskbar. Moreover, the Toolbars menu command and submenu are removed
from the context menu. The taskbar displays only the Start button, taskbar
buttons, the notification area, and the system clock. If this setting is
disabled or is not configured, the taskbar displays all toolbars. Users can
add or remove custom toolbars, and the Toolbars command appears in the
context menu.

Drats, I'm not running XP, just 2000.
I guess I'm SOL, eh?
