Default folder tree has unwanted icons

The folder tree has an icon for 'Control Panel' even though it's specifed
that it not be there in 'Tools/Folder Options'. I can't delete the icon.
There is no 'delete' option in the drop down list and the 'delete' key
doesn't work either.

Also there are icons for 'Shared Documents' and 'Owner's Documents' in the
tree that are also not removable from the tree.

All 3 icons appear at the bottom of the tree. The icon for the 'My
Documents' folder is removable (as is normal) and appears in it's usual place
at the top of the tree.

Why are the 3 aforementioned icons there and how can I remove them if I want
to?
