Reread my post that you included below yours. =) I don't recall what
application you installed, but you've installed a third party non-Microsoft
application that is being invoked when you're right-clicking.

I have this exact same problem. And I know another guy who has it as well.
Here's a post I've about the issue.
====================================================
I have a very very strange problem that I'm experiencing with Media
Player.
I'm wondering if anyone else has seen it or if MS is even aware of the
issue.
Basically the problem involves the screen flickering or occassionally
going
black for a second or so. But the weird thing is this isn't during
playback
of any media file. It's when I right click on any video file that is
associated with Media Player. That's right - all I have to do is right
click
on a media player associated video file. Association with any other media
playing application does not cause the problem - it's only media player.
And it's 100% reproducible.
And now for some more weirdness. It only started doing it when I changed
monitors.
Ok you say - the new monitor is faulty. Well I'd like to think so but how
the heck is right clicking on a media file supposed to affect a monitor at
all?!? It's just a video signal. It doesn't know that I'm right clicking
on
something. And further to that if it did know I was right clicking on
something why would it only do it for files associated with media
player?!?!
This is 100% reproducible. 100%. It ONLY happens with media player
associated
files. So to me that's a strong indicator that media player is doing
something. What - I don't know - but something.
Anyway - I'm going nuts. If anybody has heard of this kind of a problem
before and knows any way to possibly resolve the issue I'd love to hear
it.
Alternatively if you can even provide a plausable explaination as to why
the
heck this behaviour is occurring in the first place I'd like to hear that
too.
It's not like this is causing a crash or anything (if it did MS would know
due to the fault reporting). It's just as annoying as hell. And I'm not
the
only one with the problem. One of the guys I work with has the exact same
symptoms to the letter. I asked what type of monitor he has and
unfortunately
we're not the same. Also not every version of Media player causes the
issue.
I'm running v10.00.00.4036. I also have an nVidia 7800GTX video card and
the
monitor I'm using is an HP P1130 (rebadged Sony G520). The res I'm running
is
1600x1200x85hz but I've tried others and it's the same all the way down to
800x600.
Any help is appreciated.

Is this in the player or within Explorer?
Sounds like you installed a third party application that installed itself
as
a right-click option...
