Cleanup the extra entries of the registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers

WARNING: Only remove the entries that come from 3rd party software. If
you remove something that windows put there, your context menu could be
completely screwed. Here are the ones on my system:

Offline Files
Open With
Open With EncryptionMenu
UltraEdit-32
{a2a9545d-a0c2-42b4-9708-a0b2badd77c8}

(BTW, that's with SP1, but SP2 isn't that much different).


ShellexView from http://nirsoft.mirrorz.com/ can do that for you
(apparently), and also undo your change.
