EDIT: All %userprofile% instances have been changed to %username%. After testing with Virtual PC, it seems that %userprofile% didn't work.

;Remove QuickTime Icon from TASKBAR
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apple Computer, Inc.\QuickTime\ActiveX]
"QTTaskRunFlags"=dword:00000002

;Disable Norton Unerase Protection
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NProtectService]
"Start"=dword:00000004

;Enable Cleartype on Welcome Screen
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]
"FontSmoothingType"="2"

;Stop MSN Messenger from Running on Windows Startup
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger]
"AppSettings"= hex:22,04,00,00

(The last one was found by someone else so credit goes to him, but I've only seen it once so I figured I'd list it here)

This next tweak I developed does a few things.

1) Deletes the 'My Shared Folder' directory from the C:\

2) Creates a 'My Shared Folder' directory in "C:\Program Files\Kazaa Lite K++\"

3) Changed Kazaa's Download Directory to the folder created in Step 2 and disables File Sharing by default.

Place this code into your Applications.cmd file (Or whatever your cmd file is)

ECHO.
ECHO Installing Kazaa Lite K-plus-plus 2.42
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\Applications\KazaaLite\klitekpp242e.exe /silent
ECHO.
ECHO Changing Shared Folder Path
MKDIR "C:\Program Files\Kazaa Lite K++\My Shared Folder\"
REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\Applications\KazaaLite\kazaa.reg
ECHO.
ECHO Deleting Old Shared Folder
RD /S /Q "C:\My Shared Folder\"

Create a reg file called kazaa.reg and place it in "\install\Applications\KazaaLite\" and then place this code into the file.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Kazaa\LocalContent]
"DisableSharing"=dword:00000001
"DownloadDir"="C:\\Program Files\\Kazaa Lite K++\\My Shared Folder"

Here is some better code to remove useless shortcuts. This is placed in my Applications.cmd file after I have installed ALL of my programs, that way all the stupid desktop icons get deleted. The QuickLaunch icons are deleted without wildcards because if I had it delete *.lnk it would delete the IE icon.

ECHO.
ECHO Removing useless shortcuts...
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\Microsoft Office.lnk"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\*.lnk"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\*.lnk"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Favorites\*.url"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\AOL Instant Messenger.lnk"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Kazaa Lite K++.lnk"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Nero StartSmart.lnk"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\QuickTime Player.lnk"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Yahoo! Messenger.lnk"
