If I understand your post correctly I think that you are looking for the

NoRecentDocsNetHood registry based policy:

XP home does not have policies as i attempted to create mmc group policy but

not available and option is not in registry- that is the problem!

Add the NoRecentDocsNetHood entry to the registry. Although Windows XP

Home doesn't have a GUI Group Policy snap-in tool it doesn't mean that

you can't apply any group policies to it, you just have to add them to

the registry. If the NoRecentDocsNetHood value is absent just create it.
