Using a GPO, can you set up a desktop for a group of users in an OU that uses a company logo for the wallpaper and has no icons on the desktop? The company logo GPO is at the domain level (everyone in the organization must have the company logo as the wallpaper) and the no icons portion needs to be at the OU level. The logo will show up on the user desktop as long as there are icons there, but as soon as I set up the GPO to remove all of the icons, the desktop reverts to the default background. Any ideas?

Only idea I have is to somehow leave recycle bin on the desktop.
Most companies want a published standard desktop that includes icons or at least one that is the portal to everything they need.
Example of Oxymoron:
Person who is pro life and anti sex education.
Education is key to prevention. Prevent conception you prevent abortion.Abstinence training clearly isn't working.

Thanks for the reply. The scenario in my original post is one that my instructor gave us as part of a project in my Active Directory class. I'm beginning to think that either he didn't mean for the desktop to be completely empty of icons or this is some kind of trick question where he knows this can't be done. I've searched the web, and as of yet, I haven't come across any info on a way to do this.
