or

Entire Network is an option under Network Neighborhood that allows users to
see all the Workgroups and Domains on the network.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Networ
k] *PER USER KEY*
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Netwo
rk] *PER SYSTEM KEY*
"NoEntireNetwork"=dword:00000001

Enabling this option hides all Workgroup contents from being displayed in
Network Neighborhood.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Networ
k] *PER USER KEY*
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Netwo
rk] *PER SYSTEM KEY*
"NoWorkgroupContents"=dword:00000001

The Network Neighborhood is shown on the Windows desktop whenever Windows
networking is installed, by enabling this setting the icon will be hidden.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explor
er] *PER USER KEY*
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explo

Is there a registery hack to remove the Network Neighborhood from an NT4
Workstation Desktop. I'm trying to stop some high school kids playing around
on the network and this would hopefully stop a couple of them in their
tracks.

Thanks
Simon
