Remove unneeded files in Vista 5456

Hello all,
I want to remove Calender. Windows Mail, and other un-used programs, but I
cannot! I can't even delete the files! Please help.

Re: Remove unneeded files in Vista 5456

I haven't seen those options yet in any beta. My advice would be to leave
them alone and never try to delete any program by deleting its icon.
Programs need to be uninstalled, not deleted. The smart thing to do is just
leave those programs in place and ignore them. They're not doing any harm.
Trying to force them out of the beta will likely cause more problems than
it's worth.

Of course, I meant uninstall. And if Microsoft is back in the business of
creating super intergrated products (like the IE of old), then that's bad
news.
