I've been googleing for about an hour now and still not finding what I'm looking for.
I recently reinstalled XP and I like the Classic look for the Start Menu and such.
When I turned my computer on today the list of programs in the Start Menu only had the most used programs and the ones I don't use as often were at the bottom but hidden till you click on the arrows at the bottom. Then they show up and all the programs are there. The most used ones are high lighted a little darker.
So I've been trying to turn off this feature and I'm not having any luck.

Right click on the Start button, select properties.
Click the "Classic Start Menu" then click the Customize button.
Uncheck the last option in the scroll list "Use Personalized Menus."

I think that should do it for you.
