Comment about 'Get Rid of the Unwanted Explorer Windows at Startup'

In XP, choose Folder Options to uncheck "Restore previous folder windows at logon".

This effects the following registry entry:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"PersistBrowsers"=dword:00000000

I added this registry entry in Win2000 (there is no "Restore previous folder windows 
at logon" in the Folder Options) and it worked as well!
