The first link for Customizing Right-Click Menu Options in Windows works, but Kelly must
have deleted the second link from the "XP Tweaks" web site. The original poster can go to
the first link and follow the directions, or use the Manual info provided in my original
post. Kelly, if you're reading, the:

Add, Modify, Disable, Delete Context Menu Listings (Line 23)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm link on your
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_qr.htm page needs editing...
