TECH: Win 98: Removing Zip-Disk Icon from Desktop

[Gabe Gancarz <gabe@EDMAIL.COM>]

This is driving me nuts.  I've been trying to dictate to Windows 98 on our new PCs 
made by Tangent that an Iomega Zip disk Shortcut icon not appear on the Desktop 
anymore, but it won't cooperate.  I thought I could simply put the icon into the 
Recycle Bin and be done with it, but whenever I restart the machine, the icon 
reappears.

I've tried doing a search in Win 98 for anything with "Zip" in it and deleting an 
icon in the StartUp folder, but that didn't work, either.  I've also explored the 
settings after checking the Properties.  Furthermore, I've tried locating this 
thing via the Control Panels to no avail.

I don't know completely what I'm doing since I'm much less familiar with the 
nuances of Windows 98.  I'd appreciate it greatly if someone could point me in the 
right direction.

Thanks,

Gabe :-)
