Remove Musicmatch from USB autorun list

When you uninstall Musicmatch from your computer, some of the registry entries are left in your system. So once you plug in your USB drive, Musicmatch is still in the "Open With" list. This can be really annoying.

There's a software called ccleaner, perfect for clearing unwanted registry entries. Download it for free.

This will work with other software as well.
