Hi,

On our internet pcs, the most recently viewed documents are displayed
when
you click 'start' and then click 'documents'. Can this be prevented? We
are
using Windows NT workstation. 

Clearing the documents menu by clicking on 'start', 'settings',
'taskbar'
etc. will not work because this feature has been turned off using
policy
editor. Also, deleting the 'recent' folder for the relevant user does
not
work either.

If I can remove the Documents Menu from the Start Menu or prevent short
cuts
from being added to it, this would be ideal.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
