Remove Recent Projects from Visual Studio 2008

Ever wanted to remove an item from the recent projects menu on the start page of Visual Studio?
The list is stored in the registry under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\ProjectMRUList
Here, you will find a list like this:
File1 Reg_Expand_Sx Path
File2 Reg_Expand_Sx Path
File3 Reg_Expand_Sx Path
File4 Reg_Expand_Sx Path

You just need to delete the items you don't want. Note: If you delete item 2 you will need to rename item 3 and 4 so there are no gaps in the naming. (3 becomes 2, 4 becomes 3).

Another way is just to wait until you have opened more projects. Also, if you delete the project solution and try and open it, Visual Studio will display a dialog asking if you want to remove it from the list.
