hello. and this and the information.
the XP_Securityconsole didnt resolve this problem. but
let me explane this a little better.

at this point. I am rolling out over 700 XP Professional
Installs. in 17 Computer Labs. each lab has one of 5
types of systems. so the roll out will be done with
Ghost.

I have a user account in 2 domain and on the local system

Domain1/rboone
Domain2/rboone
rboone on the local system

ok on the local system, I log in with my local account
and set the profile up. "getting software installed and
removing software that is not needed "outlook express
being one""

after I create my Local Profile. I then copy this profile
to the default profile using KB319774 How To: Create a
Custon Default User Profile

after creating this profile. I am able to log into the
system using the Domain1/rboone account and it has the
correct programs installed. and yes OUTLOOK Express is
not There

this is the same when I log into Domain2/rboone

the problem is when someone else logs in.
domain1/testuser or domain2/testuser

the testuser account recived a copy of the custom default
user profile "like it is suppost to get" but it also
get a icon for Outlook express.

what I am needing is a way to remove this Outlook Express
competelly. without having to manually remove it from
700 systems.

thanks

Randy Boone
