Disabling Netscape buttons

Our public library is running the Netscape 4.08 Standalone browser, with
WinSelect, on Win95/Pentium machines. We have a problem with the "My
Netscape" button in the latest version of the Standalone - it goes right
to the Netscape home page. 

Since these machines are for database access only, not Internet
generally, we need a way to get rid of that button, or disable it. I
have tried modifying the prefs.js file as directed by the "How to Change
the URL of the Netscape tool bar search button" article on the Sunsite
Berkeley page, modified for the "my Netscape", but I must not be writing
it correctly because it didn't work. I also tried disabling it with the
instructions for "How to kill the Netscape Shop Button" but that didn't
work either. I went through the Web4Lib archives for button disabling,
but the only msg I found had no answers posted, it was just the
question, like this one. 

So, how do I disable/delete/dispose of the "My Netscape" button? Can
anyone help? Pretty please? would appreciate any possible assistance.
