Windows Mobile 6 introduced scroll bars to some core OS applications - in case anyone of you feels like getting rid of them, use the following registry keys:
Go to HKLM/System/GWE and change the following values
cxHScr=0
cxVScr=0
cyHScr=0
cyVScr=0In case you don’t want to totally remove the scroll bars, but thin them out a bit, you can set these values:
cxVScr=3 (original 6)
cyHScr=3 (original 6)

I recommend only making them thinner. Scroll bars provide a useful service even when you can’t drag them directly — they show you where on the page you are and whether there’s anything above or below what you’re looking at.
By the way, this is really an old hack from the Pocket PC days. I’m not sure why AllShadow is getting the links for it, but it’s been around long before the Shadow.
Hi Pony,
well - it’s a matter of choice ;).
As for the linkage - it is sometimes unfair ;).

Thanks for the link!
Pony, the Titanic sunk a long time ago, but Dr Ballard gets credit for finding it after awhile
Hi,
it was a pleasure!
All the best
