BUG: Track Eraser fails to delete Windows Media Player Tracks

C

Repro:

1. Ensure Windows Media Player closed
2. Use Beta-1 (build 1.0.501) and use the Track Eraser to
remove all tracks from windows media player.
3. Double click on a MP3 or WMA to load Windows Media
player 10. I'm using release build (v10.00.00.3646)
4. Click top right "->" icon to display the "Now Playing
List" toolbar if it isn't already showing
5. Click the "Buy CD from MSN Music UK" button down the
bottom right which will bring up the built-in MSN Music
add-in to WMP 10.
6. Click MSN shortcuts and then expand "Recently Played"
tree. hey presto .. all the videos / files you've played
locally and even streamed via the internet (eg. news
story etc.) over the last week or longer. This should not
happen!

MSN Music toolbar is viewing local metadata from WMP10
the tracks eraser has either not not nuked or forgotten
about. Some of the recently viewed tracks listed were
played offline so this list is not populated from the
internet / MSN Music store.

Unless of course, MSN collects details of every single
track / video played -- big privacy issue and highly
unlikely!!

Can we get it fixed for beta-2?

Many Thanks
