Not in Win9x. We reset it at every logon. Naughty 4-letter words are very popular with our younger male students. These icons plus the desktop & screensaver are a major battlefield for us. We tried lots of different policy constraints but these little so-and-sos are very creative. Microsoft apps in particular seem to open back doors into areas we want frozen. We found wiping desktop settings, desktop icons, & the screensaver at every logon was necessary.

NT you might be able to use ownership to lock down these areas more effectively.
