Some of us may or may not want some applets (icons) showing in the control panel, for security or any reasons whatsoever
Here is a small tut to show how to hide them.
There are tools which do that, but this way you can hide any, manually.

Open group policy editor : click start > run > gpedit.msc > OK.
Open group policy editor > user configuration > administrative templates > control panel > hide specified control panel applets > properties > check enabled > show list of disabled control panel applets > add > Folder Options > ok > apply > OK.
