The NIW is provided with the Microsoft Office 97 Resource Kit, and the latest version can be obtained from the following Web site: http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork Follow these steps to prevent the IE Setup icon from being created: 1. Start the NIW and select the Setup.lst file where the client installation point is located. 2. On the "Start Menu and Desktop Items" page, disable the Setup for Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.02.lnk option. 3. Complete the remaining steps presented by the NIW. 4.
