I think you're seeing WinXP being helpful. In particular, the "Start menu
contains shortcuts to the programs you use most often." To change the number
of
shortcuts displayed, try this:
1. Right-click on the "start" button and select Properties.
2. Select the "Start Menu" tab.
3. Assuming the (not Classic) Start Menu button is selected, click Customize.
4. Under Programs, try lowering the number to 0. Then OK your way out.
I thought that I had tried this and it didn't work. For example, I had the
number at 0 and would open Adobe Reader, not already on the start menu. Then
I'd
open Adobe Reader and find it on the start menu. I'll try again, and thanks.
