Im sure that plenty of people know about this but some might not.

I did NOT like the resco updater and felt like removing it (along with system info)
SO i went into the program file and simply deleted the .exe's for both of those apps.
However, the annoying shurtcuts still remained in the programs window. To remove these by hand (using only the windows XP or 2000, etc file explorer. since you cant see them from the WM5 explorer) navigate from the main device Dir. to windows/startmenu/programs there you wil see all of the .exe's for the programs.

Also, if you ever had a program which was only a .exe and you wanted to make it more permenant by putting it in your programs window you can just drag and drop the .exe in there and it will show up in windows mobile 5 when browsing your programs window. However i have yet to figure out how to add in icon art. so for now there will just be a blank shortcut with the app name.

Hope I helped, Ilya

try using total commander... and you'll see the .lnk to delete or move your .exe files
