Ok, I upgraded to XP pro a few months ago and one feature in bugging the hell out of me. In ME, when you open the start menu, and go to the programs folder, it shows you the ENTIRE contents. But in XP pro, it ONLY shows you the top 25 or so items, and then you have to click the double down-arrow to see the rest of them (that aren't used as much). Soo, has ANYONE found the way to change this inconvenient option? THANKS!

YES, THE ONLY WAY THAT I KONW IS GO TO THE START MENU control panel, and then "custom" then "advanced". Uncheck the scroll. Then it should do the trick.
