I've got an adult site that I need to delete from my Media Player file that shows up all the time when it shows the recently visited sites. How do I delete these files?

Another way is to do it from regedit and delete only that particular file. This wont clear all the files and hence wont arouse any suspicion. :tazz:

Open regedit.
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\RecentFileList
On the right frame, U will have string variables ranging from File0 to Filen (where (n+1) is the max. no. of files in the list).
Delete which-ever particular file u want.
But, u have now broken the sequence. U will have to rename the last variable to the one which u deleted.

e.g.: I have varibales ranging from File0 to File8. If I delete File5, I have broken the sequence of numbers (i.e. 0 to 8). Now I will have to rename File8 to File5.
