TweakUI & "show version on desktop"

Dents
Unlike most ppl here, I never got to see any of the Win2k beta's, so I was curious what this show windows version on desktop was all about. I saw the option in tweakUI, so I tried it. It was neat, but now I want to turn it OFF! I've unchecked the box, but it won't go away! lol Any clues?.

Nero and NTFS
