I am looking for a way to remove the Shutdown option on my W2K (more important) and W2K3 servers. I want to do it as a safety measure to prevent any rapid fire clickers from accidentily shutting down the server. I've seen posts on how to setup a desktop icon to replace the shutdown command, but how do you remove it from the menu? And is there a way to make a log off desktop icon?

Thank you.

Both items can be set by domain group policy and in local group policy, depending if you have your servers in a domain or not.
For the location of these object, search for this "Group Policy Object Settings xls" in your favorite search engine.
