Windows 95 Start/Tool Bar

How do I get a VB 5.0 App to disable a Win 95 startbar so that the user can only select options from those on the loaded form

I need to know specific what you want:
- Should the startbar and desktop be disabled temporarily or permament?
   Temp: Create a system modal dialog. This allows nobody to do anything until your dialog is closed. People do not like these dialogs.
   Perm: You want to provide another shell. In this case remove shell="Explorer.exe" in the system.ini (or win.ini) and replace it with shell="YourApp.exe". This removes the taskbar & desktop completly.
