    There are yet another places where you can check these entries:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.extension\OpenWithList
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\SystemFileAssociations\.extension\\OpenWithList

    OR

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.extension\OpenWithList

    u can use una program called Windows XP/Vista/7 Manager.

    I use regularly to change registry values of my send-to menu (when you click on desktop) it also can change the Open-with list of programs.
