I added the home icon to our Edubuntu Feisty setup with gconf-editor by checking
/apps/nautilus/desktop/home_icon_visible and making it mandatory and default.  I imagine
this would be similar with Fedora, so just be sure that the box is unchecked and right
click and set mandatory and default.  This should make them all go away and not show up
with new users.
