DeskTop Lockdown Problem

[qsysoper]

Why is it when I hide the desktop icons on win 2000/XP, suddenly dbl-clicking on the desktop brings up the start menu? (I have the taskbar and start button hidden as well.)

I'm using basic API's:

lngDesktopIcons = FindWindowEx(0&, 0&, "Progman", vbNullString)
ShowWindow lngDesktopIcons, 0

I've tried a different API as well but same problem. Anybody have an Idea?

Seems to me this is something you should do with security profiles. Doing this via code is more suspect then doing it properly. Controlling and looking down a standard operating environment is a administrative task more then a programmers job.
