Default Context menu add-on

I was reading through Bman's thread concerning the context menu, and I thought I'd share a little discovery, in case you've never heard about it.

There's a litle context menu add-on you can download here, and which will add a few very useful features (at least for me) to it.
It's called rjh extensions, and can add the following options :
-Duplicate Files (like copy&paste in one click, and adds a "(1)", "(2)", "(3)", etc. at the end of the file's name, instead of "copy of" at the beginning)
-Rename Files (for batch renaming of files)
-Encrypt Files
-Shred Files
-Path to Clipboard
-Command Prompt
-Print Directory List
-Save Directory List


At some point I tried 12ghosts' ShellEx app, and actually liked it a lot. It was a lot more configurable. Plus you could add/remove pretty much whatever you wanted to your context menu. Even run programs from it.
But, at the price the'yre asking for it, I think I'll stick with free rjh for the time being.

(And thanks to Enyo for contextedit. )

You wouldn't happen to have the help file handy, would you ?

Here's one for you all : How would you take away the "Copy to Audio CD" option in the context menu, for audio files ?
