Found these in the Clsid subkey...

To activate, you must place a minus sign in front of the first number/letter within the pertinent clsid.

example:

{-E0E11A09-5CB8-4B6C-8332-E00720A168F2}


This one will remove the entire Menu in Explorer and Internet Explorer. Once you reboot the Start Menu will become disabled as well.

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{5b4dae26-b807-11d0-9815-00c04fd91972}]
@="Menu Band"


This one will remove the New option on the context menu and in Explorer.

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{D969A300-E7FF-11d0-A93B-00A0C90F2719}]
@="Microsoft New Object Service"
"flags"=dword:00000000

Simon,

Thank you. I was pleasantly surprised. I am sincerely honored by the additions to your site.

Here's another one...

For user that upgrade to IE 6.0, there's a new tab in the Internet Options. It's named Privacy. You can remove this tab by completing the action referenced below...

Drill down to..

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Inte rnet Explorer\Control Panel]

Add a new DWORD value of Privacytab with the value data of 1.
