I found that by editing the %SYSTEMDIR%\web\folder.htt you could alter the look of 
all folders globally.

by simply removing these 2 lines: 
                <span id=MediaPlayerSpan>
                </span>
you disable the Media Player Preview in all folders.

Images are still previewed.

you could put the folder.htt in a local folder to either enable or disable WMP for 
that folder. 

System: Windows 2000, SP4+WMP9+Latest Hotfixes

PS: As always, work on a BACKUP of your data :)
