I have installed a number of applications and they all are a bit too
helpful,
installing right-click context menu items - Winamp ('enqueue in Winamp',
Windows Grep, TortoiseSVN, etc.)

I can put up with having a fairly large right-click menu for Windows
Explorer,
but it seems ridiculous to have a SVN right-click item on 'Recycle bin'
(I am NEVER going to do any SVN operations on 'Recycle bin'; I am
NEVER going to do an 'enqueue in Winamp' from 'My Network Places'.

Is is possible to remove these context menu items from things like
'Recycle bin' and 'My Network Places' but leave them intact for regular
Windows Explorer?

Thanks in advance,
Mike
