noo i mean is theer a reg hack for it so i can automate some tasks?
 
You could look at Add or Remove/ Windows Components, this will have entries for Internet Explorer and Outlook Express, where unchecking them will remove access from the Start Menu.
 
gave me my answer

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

Policy: Remove pinned programs list from the Start menu
Description:Removes the pinned programs list from the Start menu. Also removes the Internet and E-mail checkboxes from the Start menu customization CPL.
