Folder Drop Down Contents

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Some of my folders include items in the (RT Click) drop down list that are
wholly inappropriate.
I think they were put there by programs that I installed.
For example, I have a "Security Tools� folder on the desktop that has
shortcuts for things like AdAware, Spybot, Event viewer etc. two programs -
Winamp and Real player seem to have inserted options in the dropdown.
"Identify with ID3myMP3", Add to Winamp's bookmark list", "Enqueue in
Winamp", "Play in Winamp".
How can I get rid of these entries and how can I change the order of the
entries?
I would like "Open� to be first.
Thanks
