How to permanently remove "links" in favorites?

This is a discussion about How to permanently remove "links" in favorites? in the Windows Software category; Hi, Does anyone know how I can remove the links item in the favorites menu? When I delete it, explorer 5 just adds it back the next time I start explorer. Also the my documents item is kinda annoying but I cant seem to remove them.

Try using TweakUI, I know that will get rid of documents, and I THINK it nukes links also

OP
I installed TweakUI for Win2K but when I tried to run it, I got an error message "this prerelease of TweakUI has expired", or something to that effect. I tried two different locations to download it, but the same problem appears always. Anybody know where I can find a non-prerelease version of TweakUI?
 
Thanks!

Change them in explorer for hidden -folders.
