Here is a short extract from that page.
"Q: How do I turn off the Most Recently Used list within WMP?
A: This is only possible with Media Player for XP and later. Run this reg file to clear your system and WMP MRU menus, as well as turning the MRU off. Run this reg file to reenable your system and WMP MRU menus. The Media Player Tray Control included withthe Media Player for Windows XP Power Toys include this functionality. "
There are links included in the article (not shown above obviously) to descriptions of how to actually do it... Visit the site!
Oh... and I hope you're using WinXP!
Cheers,
Tim.

Get the Windows Media Player 7 Bonus Pack.
Windows Media Player 7 keeps track of the media files you open. It lists the names of the most recently used items in the Recent File List on the File menu. You can use the Most Recently Used Cleaner PowerToy to clear this list as frequently as you want.

there's two ways to clear recent playlist but don't no of a way to prevent it, although you can limit how many it displays in options.
method 1. is to download the windows media power pak from microsoft. it includes media player MRU cleaner, wheninstalled it'll be in your start menu. click on it select ok & it clears list, very fast takes couple of seconds.
method 2. you can install X-Setup from this site

if you instal go to program options+build in windows apps+windows media player & click on clear items. takes longer using this method.
