    I just installed Windows 7 RC on Parallels 4.0 Mac and all of my Mac icons from my Mac desktop appeared on my Windows desktop.

    Wondering if there is a way to get rid of these?

    Yes. Go into the configuration editor with the virtual machine shut down and turn off Shared profile (but keep Shared Folders). You will likely have to reboot the virtual machine a few times for it to resolve after that.

    How about Windows icons that appear on the Mac desktop?
