Description Luca Ferretti 2007-10-07 08:36:04 UTC 
As well as applications should not use "Application" word in their visible name (as per HIG), I think capplets should not use the word "Preferences".

It seems that at-properties is the only capplet from gnome-control-center adding "Preferences" to Name key in .desktop file.

I strogly suggest to remove it.
