terminal services system tray

I have terminal services running on the Windows 2003 server, so that users can connect with WYSE thin clients.  I also have Carbonite running on the server.  I've gotten multiple calls from users today because of a warning that Carbonite puts up.  I would like these kinds of Carbonite messages to only appear for the user administrator.  Do you know of a way to limit the Carbonite icon in the system tray to only the administrator user?

I haven't done much with group policies.  Once I make the change you described, to I have to assign that policy to users, or does it automatically apply to all users?

In Documents and Settings there's an All Users section. Make sure the application is not listed here.
Also right click on Start, select Open All Users | Programs | Startup and make sure the application is not being launched here as well.
It should only be launching for the Administrator.
Just an fyi.....I would not modify the default domain policy...i would create a new sec group...put that group in its own ou...and create a new gpo and link to that OU...other wise you may restrict yourself from seeing the systray :-)
