i've been hand picking out all the files in my xp source that i don't want to install, like the stock wallpapers, stationary, etc. and i've come upon a couple of files that i'm not sure are safe to remove. first there's a file called "sp2.cab" ... now i slipstreamed sp2 a year and half ago (i think) and i can't remember if i cabbed it and threw in my i386 folder for nostalgia sake or if the service pack installer put this file there, i just can't remember. i'm wondering if this is safe to remove (19 mb) ... also what about "FP40EXT.CAB" ... i think its frot page extensions, which i won't use, so is that safe to remove. another cab is "IIS6" which i would guess is IIS, again i won't use that. there's also a "modem.cab" is that safe to get rid of if i'm using a wireless lan card. last but not least what about everything associated with the "OOBE" or out of box experience. i don't know if nlite will remove some of these when it builds my iso, but i didn't see any options for those things in the list.

thanks for any feedback.
