Newbie question on the start button...

[Guest Terri]

When I go to Start - where the ALL Programs are - there are icons above

pointing to the most recent places i.e.notebook - outlook express. How do I

stop this program from collecting the sites and just use the ones I want??

Right click any entry you don't want to be there and select "Remove from

This List".

If you are referring to the list of entries immediately above the 'All

Programs' title in the start menu then...

Right click on the Start Menu button, select 'Properties' from the list of

options.

Next in the 'Taskbar and Start Menu' window click on the 'Start Menu' tab.

You should now see a 'Customize' button, click on this button.

Next in the 'Customize Start Menu' window locate the 'Programs' box, here

you will find a option to specify the 'Number of programs on Start menu',

set the value to Zero. Click 'OK' to exit out.

Almost forgot, the programs you wish to keep.

Highlight a program and drag it straight up to a point just above the thin

dividing line at the top of the list and into the area just below your

account name. Now you have what you need and no more recent entries will

appear.
