I'm trying to get rid of the "My Bluetooth Places" icon on my desktop/

I've found instructions to do this via regedit for XP, but the key mentioned
in those instructions don't match the keys I find under Vista.

I would like to get a My Bluetooth Places icon on my desktop. :-) How do I
do that? I have an icon in the taskbar but no Bluetooth Places either there
at right click or on the desktop.

It only shows up when you install the bluetooth driver software.

I wrote a how to guide on removing it here:

Hi,

Transfered to Vista (on a new PC) from XP (old PC), but Internet Explorer
Auto Completes did not transfer.

Where do I find these settings on the old system and how to trasfer to the
new installation?

Please help, thanks.
