Extract to...
Add to Archive
Unlock using...
Compress and Email...

And also I got Yahoo and when i right clik on the Internet it has a list saying:

IM this page to a friend...
Add This page to Yahoo! Bookmark
Email this page to a friend...

These are so annoying, does anyone know how to get rid of these without actually uninstalling the program?

Thnx

404687 2005-11-15 19:59:00 It's the way you install them.

For Winrar, start up Winrar & go into Options/Settings. Uncheck Integrate Winrar into shell.
Click on Context Menu Items & uncheck the ones you don't want.

You accepted all defaults when you installed it.

For Yahoo, just go to Add/Remve Programs & uinstall the Yahoo toolbar & anything else you selected by default.

Try not to blindly click Next when you install applications.

404689 2005-11-15 20:15:00 with some like winrar you can set it to "cascade context menus" ie you have another list of the first list. just makes it tidier. tweak'e (69)
404690 2005-11-15 20:25:00 ^_^ Thnx. That reminds me, I got Microsoft Office and I manually put it into the 'start menu'. how do i cascade the Microsoft Office, so that the Softwares pop out in another list.

Thnx ^_^

404691 2005-11-15 23:13:00 If u have XP, delete the office programs in the all programs menu, then go to the office folder, and right mouse / pin to start menu. For the office programs.

Or get a keyboard like this one, then u wont need the icons.

Pressing the key/s will load it for you :D
