GOOD question. Everytime i delete that little booger it comes back to life on me. One of these days maybe i'll just live with it and actually put something in it, like a link, lol.

Hehe, there has to be a way to get rid of it. I remember i think TweakUI had one for Windows 98...but TweakXP doesnt have one.
 I hope someone knows a solution to this, then we both wont have to deal with it.

i'm at work at the moment so i won't be able to confirm this until i get home but i think i found an option in gpedit somewhere cos i've switched it off.
i'll post another message here when i get home and check - maybe 2 hours time k? |

okey dokey, it's easier than i remember......
tweak xp does do it, not gpedit after all! the check box is under 'Explorer', scroll down about two thirds of the way and presto! Uncheck the option to display Links on Favorites. laterz |

a way to get rid of the links folder so that you dont see it in your favourites menu (but it will still be on your drive) is to right click it, choose properties and check off the hidden attribute.

Punkrulz, you need to get PowerToys for XP. The program you want it TweakUI, not TweakXP. stef_nz, the full monty dude, thx.

simple...just click on that big, hippy-like banner at the top of this page (i love it waddy!) and look down the table on the left-hand side under "Freebies".
