Hi Everyone,
Do anyone knows how to copy a program icon on every desktop
using a batch file or kiks?

I know it has something todo with the registry.

Thanks a million.

you can achieve this goul by using group policy
1.place all users, who must have that icon to the same OU
2.create new GPO and assign it to your OU, configure it to add particular
Web-based items or shortcuts to users' desktops. Users can close or delete
the items (if policies allow), but the items are added again each time the
policy is refreshed.

You can also use this policy to delete particular Web-based items from
users' desktops. Users can add the item again (if policies allow), but the
item is deleted each time the policy is refreshed.

Note: Removing an item from the "Add" list for this policy is not the same
as deleting it. Items removed from the add list are not removed from the
desktop. They are just not added again.

In a Login Script...

Kixtart example:
copy "\\server\source\location\my_program_link.lnk " "C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Desktop"

or
copy "\\server\source\location\my_program_link.lnk " "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Desktop"

or
copy "\\server\source\location\my_program_link.lnk " "C:\Documents and
Settings\%USERNAME%\Desktop"


In addition...
If you post to UseNet with your TRUE, not a munged, email address then you have invited the
swen Internet worm to visit you.

The Swen is news spelled backwards. The reason it is called this is because the Swen worm
harvests email addresses from UseNet News Groups. It has an engine that allows it to post
itself to UseNet News Groups and well as it has its own email engine. From the list of
email addresses that it has harvested, it will then email itself to those addresses.
