To get it off the desktop easily, just right-click the shortcut and delete
the shortcut from the desktop (older versions of CA/400 didn't put the
shortcut on the desktop but rather put the real OpsNav there).

To delete it entirely, don't go through the hassle of reinstalling CA/400,
just move or delete the CWBUNNNAV.EXE file in the Client Access folder. Be
careful trying to remove this file simply by renaming it. Most of the time
(but not always) Win95 is smart enough to change short-cut references to the
new name.

I asked IBM several months ago why the OpsNav was included as part of the
default installation. It certainly doesn't seem to me that it should part of
the default installation. Then IBM offered up the lame excuse that at least
now all it did was put the shortcut on the desktop. Go figure.
