Is there any way that I can prevent users from deleting icons from the
desktop and start menu list?
If you have XP Pro, you can specify what users can do in a very
fine-grained way. Use the Group Policy Editor and look under
Administrative Templates.
Start>Run gpedit.msc [enter]
If you have Home Edition, the Group Policy Editor is not available.
Instead, look at Doug Knox's Security Console and see if it will do
what you want, at

If you have Home and the Security Console doesn't meet your needs, look
at third-party software or consider upgrading to Pro.
