Searching for instances of "Now Up to Date" on my hard drive did not reveal where the contextual menu was applied.
Turns out that it is implemented in the GrabNGo.plugin
/Library/Contextual Menu Items/GrabNGo.plugin
Deleting this plugin has finally freed me from the contextual menu tyranny. There were a couple of other contextual menu plugins for other software that I had evaluated -- Extensis Portfolio, iViewMedia Pro. But at least they had names that gave some clue as to their purpose.
Who would guess that GrabNGo.plugin was part of Now Up To Date?
I've always been proud that MacOSX doesn't have the need for system Un-installers (a la "Add or Remove Programs" in Windows), but situations like these almost make your wish for one.
