Start Menu

[kkk]

is there any way i can remove the "turn off your
computer" option from the start menu...i've set up my pc
so that pressing the power button switches it off. so i
don't really want that turn off your computer thing
there...i've disabled log off, but i can't seem to find
any fix for disabling the turn off...

also, is it possible to remove my user name AND picture
from the top of the start menu ? if yes, then how ?


if both of these are possible, will the solution be
reversible, in case i don't like how the start menu
looks ?
