I have Outlook 2007 Enterprise installed on a Windows 2003 Terminal server
and have configured the Admin file to allow for the Client to be
auto-configured for all new connections. What I need to do is get rid of the
first run pop-ups that occure when a new profile is created, these are the
pop-ups that have the users initials and to improve the user experience. Does
anyone know which registery key that needs to be disabled or from where in
the MSP file that I need to make this change?

Thanks

CUA is a global Office option and not specific to Outlook. You can disable
this via the generic Office GPO template.
I'm not sure if you can do the same for the initials or that you can disable
it by the various FirstRunDialog regkeys that exist such as in;
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook
Set the value to "false" (without quotes)
