OT: "Search" at top of right click context menu -- driving me nuts

On a Dell Precision T3400 with winXP Pro x64 SP2. (My work machine.)

When I right click on a folder in the right pane of explorer the first
item is "Search..." When I click on a folder directly in the right
pane it opens a new search box.

This is unendingly annoying to me. I just want it to go to the next
explore view.

How can I change this default action (and, consequently, change the
context menu on right click).

I assume this has to be changed in the registry. I'm not afraid to do
it. But I don't know where. When I do a find on "search" there are a
zillion results. When I do a find on "Search..." (the actual text
string that appears in the context menu) I get 0 hits. So, I'm sort of
at a loss.

Any help most appreciated.
