options from menus when right-clicking them

[skatin for satan]

when I right click my desktop to make a new folder I noticed some dead icons in the same list, icons from programs I un-installed a while back, the list seems to get bigger and I have no idea how to remove these unsightly things, or is it just something I
have to live with?
