Disable Windows XP Tour for new users

How do I stop the "Take a tour of Windows XP" from appearing for new users?

I know how to hack the registry.  That answer will not get any points.

I am looking for a way to do this using Group Policy.

Thank you.

Hi, there is a more simple way

Disable Windows XP's Windows Tour Prompt for all Users

Start/Run/Regedit. Navigate to...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets

In the right pane, locate Tour (if it doesn't exist, add it. Edit/New/Key. Then select New Value and set it to 0).

To set the same option for users, navigate to...and repeat the above steps.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets

Sorry, didnt see you asked about group policy.
