Close media player/ Click Start button/Run/ type in regedit and hit ok.
Navigate here.....

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\RecentFileList

Right click delete the unwanted entries.

Make sure to close media player or the entires wont be deleted.

Heres an article called "cover your tracks" at pc magazine.

Here you can learn about/download a free program called listzapper. It will allow you to delete the lists created in mediaplayer and a few other programs.
