group policy IE8 and Outlook 2007 questions

I am deploying a number of windows 7 workstations in an office and there are a few things that I'm trying to disable but still haven't found the solution to disable them. Here is my list;
1. when the user first opens Outlook 2007, there are 3 questions that are asked which I don't want them to see. I'm sure there is a way to disable them but I haven't found it yet.
a. Privacy Options – search Microsoft office online for help content when I’m connected to the internet
b. Sign up for Microsoft Update – download and install updates from Microsoft update when available
c. RSS feeds subscription

Last thing on my list to disable; when the user first opens IE8, there are two toolbars that automatically shows up and I want to have them disabled. AVG and PDFCreator (sourceforge).

So, some background, for the Windows 7 installation, I am following the documentation from Windows 7 AIK and I've used the IEAK for IE8 to configure the settings.
I also have the Office 2007 ADM templates downloaded and installed.
With these programs, I believe my answers are in all of this. I just haven't found them yet.

Thanks in advance for the help

ok sounds good, my files updated. One thing, is there an IE8 adm group policy that I can install on the server to customize some of the settings?
I did find some files that look like they should be the ones but just to be sure, this is the directory they are in on my local pc.
