sanjayto,

Win9z/ME I hope:

Go to start>Run, and type:
notepad c:\windows\control.ini. Add this to the [Don't Load] section:
inetcpl.CPL=no
This will hide the Internet optionsicon in Control Panel.

Then hide the IE desktop icon:
backup the registry and/or export the following keys:
go to Start>Run, type regedit. Navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer

Right-click on the Explorer key, choose new>DWORD value, name it NoInternetIcon and give it a value of 1.
