The reg hack listed here (http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/160/) will remove the right click menu entirely which is likely what you found. This one (http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/906/) will remove the new menu entirely, but it affects HKCR which may be something you would not want to do. An alternative to this would be to go into the registry and search for the SID of the New item choice (D969A300-E7FF-11d0-A93B-00A0C90F2719) and do some experimentation. You may want to check out HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Approved and remove the "Microsoft New Object Service". I don't know for certain if this will do what you're wanting, but you can always tinker a bit and find out. I hope this helps.
