By default media player will show all
recent played files. You can disable this as sometimes you
do not wish other people to know what you have been
viewing or listening to.
First, before editing your registry
remember to always back it up first, just incase you do
something wrong. The registry when modified is an instant
change and cannot be undone.
BACK UP REGISTRY: So to open the registry
editor click on "START", "RUN", then
type "REGEDIT" (No speech marks). The registry
editor will now open, click on "FILE" then
"EXPORT". From the save window that appear type
in a file name (ie regback.reg), now click on
"SAVE". Your registry has now been backed up.

TO DISABLE RECENT FILES: Now on the left
hand panel click on "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" ,
"Software", "Microsoft", then
"Outlook Express" Next search for
"Hide Messenger" in the right hand panel. If it
is not present then simply create it by doing the
following:
Right click on "Outlook Express"
select "NEW" then left click on "DWORD".
Name the new string value in right hand panel as
"Outlook Express".
Now to set the value, double click on the
string value and set it's value to "2" for
remove messenger.
