How do I disable the Windows + U hotkey in Windows XP? Alternatively, how do I stop the utility manager from being active? The two are related. The utilty manager is currently providing a potential security hole and I need to remove it[1]. The system I'm developing uses a custom Gina to log in and start a custom shell. This removes most Windows Key hotkeys but the Win + U still pops up the manager app.
Update:
Things I've tried and don't work:
NoWinKeys registry setting - this only affects explorer hotkeys;
Renaming utilman.exe - program reappears next login;
Third party software - not really an option, these machines are audited by the clients and additional, third party software would be unlikely to be accepted.
Also, the proedure needs to be reasonably straightforward - this has to be done by field service engineers to existing machines (machines currently in Russia, Holland, France, Spain, Ireland and USA).
