Biffo,
Covering your tracks again ?
This one is more straight forward. Go to Start and type regedit in the run box and hit enter.
When regedit opens, in the left pane, click once on the very top line (my computer). Then click Edit/Find and type recent in the box and hit enter. It will stop at any occurance of the word recent. Each time it finds one press F3 until you get to the files that are listed in your Media Player recent list (then make a note of their path, which will be something like :-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\RecentFileList (this is where it is in WinMe).
When you get to them, click each one ONCE and press delete, then confirm. When you are done, close regedit, and look at Media player. They should be gone.

Open Notepad and copy and paste the following between the lines and save the file as delmplayerMRU.inf. Right-click on the file and choose Install.

It appears as though nothing happens, but they're gone.
