What does this do, & how do I edit the "Allow the following applications to
appear in the Most Frequently Used Programs section of the Windows XP Start
Menu."

I can't seem to click & change any settings here.

You can remove programs from the list, so they dont appear in the Most
frequently used programs list. E.g if you only want to see microsoft word,
tweakUI and outlook express there, you remove all the items, except
those......

Hi,

To prevent a program from being displayed in the Most Frequently Used
Programs list:

1. Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\<Program name.exe>

2. Add an empty string value named NoStartPage to the registry key mentioned
above, where <Program name.exe> is the name of the executable file that is
used to start the program.

3. Quit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.
