Is there a freeware program that allows you to sort the context menu?

I am wondering if there is a freeware program that allows you to
sort the context menu that you see when you right click on a file in
windows explorer, or any other file manager for that matter. I have
about 15 programs installed on my computer all of which add an
entry into the context menu. The only problem is each one adds an
entry where ever it wants to and I would like to sort them in some
kind of order. I have seen programs that allow you to add or remove
entries from the context menu but I don't recall seeing one that allows
you to sort them in any particular order. I am using XP Pro with SP2.

1. Dump the lot. Either with your OS or ContextEdit

2. Make your own context menus with FastExplorer.
(a) You can make them for a particular file type, folders, all files,
etc.
(b) They can be arranged as you wish
(c) They can have seperators to group them
(d) They can have sub menus
(e) They can have special coloring
(f) They can have special icons

This url does not give you FastExplorer today.
(But it looks like a great freeware site anyway.)

Right. It gives you ContextEdit. I seem to have screwed up my copy/paste
of the FE URL. It is...
