Right click dropdown menu in windows explorer?

Don't know what the correct name is for this menu, so not really been
able to do a sensible search - hope someone can help:

When you right click on a file in windows explorer (XP) you get a list
of things you can do with this file (open, edit, scan, send to etc
etc). Over the years my list has got long and messy, with things I
no longer use, or use very infrequently, so I want to tidy it up and
remove some of these "short cuts". For the infrequently used actions
I'm happy just to open the application first then open the file from
within it.

So how can I remove things from this list?

Thanks, David
