Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Cleaning up the 'New' menu

When I right-click on an open space, I get the context menu which includes a 'New' line. I would like to take out some of the dumb entries in that menu so it's easier to add the only new things I ever add with that, namely shortcuts and folders.

Every time I add a program the authors think it's ok to clutter up my context menus with chaff like that. Is there a way to clean this up in NT 4.0, or a tool that can help with this?

I've used tweakui under W95 & 98 but didn't know if it was usable for NT. There have been a few time when NT was somewhat unforgiving so I want to make sure I'm not stepping over the line.

Your help is appreciated -
