I removed doitfast4u from my computer but the shortcuts for doitfast4u still appear when I right click on files and folders (windows xp). Anybody know how to dump these inactive shortcuts from the menu, I cant find out where the hell they are. Please help me out if you can.

Why do you want to remove DIF4U! ?

Thanks for answering him, Hyperyagami.

shogor: I thought I had the uninstall worked out, you were using the latest version?

All:

Straight from my NSIS script:

Section "Uninstall"
; remove registry keys
DeleteRegKey HKCR "Directory\Shell\DoItFast4U2"
DeleteRegKey HKCR "Directory\Shell\DoItFast4UOptions"

I don't understand how keys could be being left behind?!

Sorry I don't remember the version of doitfast4u, it was from last Novemeber 2002. The uninstall script crashed, I simply deleted the files and directory in which it was installed. Thanks.
