Hi Rick,

I don't know Win7, so this may not apply anymore, but in XP, there is a 
folder called SendTo in Documents and Settings\<user> which contains all 
the shortcuts that appear in that context menu.  Try doing a search for 
that folder name -- it might be as simple as renaming the shortcuts you 
find there.

HTH,
