Whenever you open My Computer in Windows, you see a few extra items like Web Folders, My Sharing Folders, Nokia PC Suite folder, etc. Actually they are installed by some software like Nokia PC Suite, Windows Live Messenger, Microsoft Forntpage, etc. 
Sometimes we want to remove them to make the My Computer window clean but we can't find any way to remove them.
So here I'll tell you a very simple way to remove them easily and permanently:
1. Open regedit and goto:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace2. Under this key, you'll see a few keys having name in following format:
{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}
3. These keys represents those My Computer items. If you select any key, you can see its description in right-side pane.
4. So delete your desired key and it'll remove the unwanted item from My Computer window.
