Tailoring the WinXP Desktop Using Policy Editor

Is there a way to control client XP desktops via a default domain GPO? I
need the ability to do more than "lock the desktop", or "hide all
desktop icons". I would like to specify which icons are present on the
desktop regardless of user login.

Hi

There is no GPO setting that supports this. But you could of course
let e.g. a logon script remove/add icons as you see fit.
