how to remove outlook icon from ts desktop?

[Guest]

we have a win2k ts with office 2k (working just fine). We restrict access to
office applications to a certain number of users. Whenever we do a windows or
microsoft update the outlook icon returns to all users desktops. I have
searched for the icon location without success. Other than logging onto every
users desktop, how can we remove the icon?

The TS is part of a NT4 domain and we are (still) using local poliices.

any help out there?

We've had a similar problem on NT4 desktops, and saw no better
solution than to remove the shortcut from the desktop in a login
script. Something like this (but check the path!):

del "C:\Windows\Desktop\Outlook Express.lnk" /Q /F 2>nul
