re: w2k right/click start button menu: Friday, March 15, 2002 at 5:37 am Posted by Curt R (1144 messages posted) If you look under C:\Documents and Settings you will notice the "All users" profile instead of the profile of the user adding the program. Some programs install their startup menu items to the all users profile. Right click on Start Menu, click on "Open all users" to get to the start menu settings or go through windows explorer (ie: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs) to remove any unwanted ones.

PSP, ifran, avg and others have inserted themselves to this right/click option off the start button and i sure wish i could find where to remove them. I also looked thru tweakui thinking it might be there but "NO"...

It may be called "Right Click Shell Integration". If not they suck !
