Go to Windows/Start Menu/Programs and proceed to remove all the programs from the folders. Delete the remaining folders (can't get em back w/o hard reset) and all your programs will be visible under the start menu. Sorry but its the best I can offer.

That's what I was going to say...there are cabs floating around to make the start menu "square" (ie, no honeycombing of the icons) and there are cabs to enable 3, 4, 5, and 6 columns of icons.

You can get the folders back by creating a new folder and naming it to the original...assuming the icon was located in /Windows, it will pop right back up.

Personally, it doesn't get better than co0kie's home tab...if you need "quick" access to more programs than you can fit on there, you have issues.

I will have to try deleting the folders when I get home, thanks.

The cabs do not work for me. All the ones I already had and searched for and tried yesterday really messed 2.5 up but didn't change the start menu.

I have cookies home tab. There are certain programs I use that I do not need shortcuts for.
