While the "DesktopClean" is a great idea, this can be easily done with Windows XP. Things like tweakui have allowed you to move the 'users' desktop to a different pathname. For example, where I work, when you save to the desktop you are really saving to "H:\Profile\Desktop". The same applies to all those special folders, ie "My Documents, internet favs, etc"
