How can I hide the Most Recently Used on the file menu in Outlook?

In Outlook (we have MS Exchange 2000 on the server), if you click on File /
Open / Other Users Folders
you will see a list of the people's folders you have recently viewed. How
can I get rid of this list?

Thank you,
Michaaael

To clear the Open Other User's Folder list ...
a.. XCLN How to Clear the Open Other Users Folder Most Recently Used List
b.. OL2000 How to Clear the Most Recently Used List of Folders
The first article explains how to get to the right point in the registry.
The second article explains what value to look for (101e0390) once you get
to the right key in the right profile. It was written for Outlook 2000, but
applies to Outlook 2002 as well (Outlook 2002 being version 10.0 instead of
9.0). To clear the Open Other Users folders MRU in Outlook 2003, follow the
steps for Outlook 2000 but look for the binary value101f0390.
