Right click=WinAMP?
 
Hello, after using winamp for a while now I decided that it's not for my tastes, so I uninstalled it BUT certain extensions to winamp are still present, such as when I right click on a .WMA audio file it still shows the menu that would be there if winamp was still installed eg: right click->Enqueue in winamp and right click->Add to Winamp's bookmark list. I was wondering how to remove of these two annoyances, help would be appreciated.

Although maybe not needed in this topic the help FAQ recommended to post my specs:
I am using the latest Win amp with Windows Xp SP2 and the latest DX9, winamp has no plugins as it is uninstalled :|.It was also the bundle version. Internals: Intel Q6600 @3Ghz,Corsair performance ram,Creative X-fi extreme gamer soundcard, Palit Nvidia 8800GTX graphics card. and other that mentionedihad no issues with winamp.

Try temporarily reinstalling Winamp. Then in Winamp...
1. Ctrl+P (for Preferences)
2. General Preferences > File Types
3. click the 'None' button > uncheck the boxes under 'Explorer Settings' and 'Winamp Agent'
4. close out of Prefs > close Winamp -- Although not necessary you may want to close Winamp, restart then close again.

After that check the right click menu. If you still see Winamp entries
1. Winamp > Ctrl+P (for Preferences)
2. General Preferences > Jump to File (double click to expand the options tree if needed) > Shell Options
3. under 'Windows Menu Control' un-highlight/unselect the items there
4. close out of Prefs > close Winamp

Then try uninstalling after either or booth of the above procedures.

Generally uninstalling Winamp should remove the right click entries. Sometimes faulty third party Winamp plug-ins can cause entries to remain in the registry. Other than that, I am not sure why it happens.
