    When I right click on a file or folder and then move the cursor to "send to" the resulting popup has in it a number of items that I cannot trace back to any sendto folder. Some of these are items I must have added myself at some point since they have names that are clearly my concoctions. Any idea on how to ferret out the items, since I would like to change their names ?

    Thanks for your reply, but that is one of the folders I alluded to in my message. The strange items do not show up in that folder nor do they show up in the C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\SendTo folder. I can't find the items in any folder even when I search the entire C drive (including hidden folders).

    Try using RegSeeker to search the registry for those 'strange names' and get rid of them after first exporting for backups (just in case).
