    When i click on start, then programs, only a fraction of the programs that i have on the programs list shows up. The only way to get it show more is by clicking the 2 downward arrows at the bottom of the menu. Is there a way to stop it from doing this. BTW i have the menu set up in the "classic" way.
    Thanks as always

    From your description it appears you have the menu set to hide seldom used items. To change this;

    Click on Start|Settings|Taskbar and Start Menu.

    Click on Start Menu Tab and then click on Customize (Classic Start Menu)

    Remove the check-mark from "Use Personalized Menus "

    You might also want to put a check-mark in "Scroll Programs ". This will allow you to scroll long menus instead of having side by side horizontal menus.

    HTH.
