Disable Windows Tour
Added 11/19/05

If you want to disable the Take Tour of Windows XP that comes up after you install WindowsXP:

Start Regedit
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Tour
-Create a new DWORD key called RunCount
-Give it a value of 0

I am not the Group Policy Guru but if you check out this link it has the complete information on how to apply this change with the information provided.

In the Novell Environment where group policy is not available I would create a .Reg file with the apropriate KEY and value then run regedit /s .reg in the login script. (you will want to make changes to the .default user not just the current user)
