I wondered if theres a way to remove the info. I dont see why it needs to be
on the desktop.

in Win2k and XP."

It needs to be there to identify that it is pre-released software not
intended for daily use.

No - not on an evaluation copy.

You can enable and disable it at will on a released version. The reg key
makes no difference on an evaluation copy.

Yeh, can't be removed. It's there to constantly remind you that it's going
to expire and die slowly ;o)
