[THIN] IE7 and favorites

Ok, I'm trying to get rid of a favorite that is automatically populated by IE7 called Microsoft Websites.  does anyone know how to get rid of this thing?  I've tried using IE Maintenance in Group Policy under URL's, Favorites and Links and the policy of Delete existing Favorites and Link, if present but it won't go away.  Any ideas?  And yes RSOP shows the policy applies just fine.
