Anyone Know How to get IEAK to consistently build a version without email and news icons

Microsoft has an administrators kit which is only $10 to cover the 
shipping.  You can't download it as it's too big.  They send you a 
CD-ROM with the administrators kit on it.  You can kill off mail and 
news and build a self extracting executable to install on any PC.  We 
have it installed and it does work.  We used it as IEAK doesn't work 
with Windows NT yet.

We are having mixed luck with IEAK to build versions for use with our 
DRAWEB catalog only.  We want these to be public catalog browsers and 
do
not want email or news to be accessible or show on the IE toolbar.

We one method that works sometimes:

* Install full IE3.01
* Use IEAK to build a version with email and news.
* Install the build over IE3.01
* Go to remove programs and remove email and news.

This works on some machines and not others.
On the machines it does not work fully on, the mail and news icon 
still
appears, but it does not work.

Has anyone else trying to get Microsoft products to work in a similar 
public setting found a way to get rid of the mail and news icon in 
IE?
