[thelist] Time's up.

 From M$:

*       If you use the Internet Services Manager to unmap the extension,
you should be aware that this setting can be overridden by group
policy.  Specifically, if Computer Configuration | Administrative
Templates | Printers | Web-based Printing is enabled, it will take
precedence over the settings in the ISM.  (By default, this setting
is not configured).  If you decide to unmap the extension rather than
apply the patch, please be sure to verify that group policy won't
reinstate the extension.

Not so!!

Many win2k boxen put the mapping back after reboot. See my other post about
a reg hack OR disable the print spooler in services.
