One of the great new features of Windows XP can also be a pain when you are concerned about your privacy. Being able to select the program that you use frequently directly on the Start panel instead of navigating through the entire Start Menu can save you some time. However, over time, this list can become cluttered with programs that you do not want. Additionally, anyone who uses your computer can easily see what programs you use.
If you are concerned about your privacy or just want to clear the list and start fresh, follow these steps :
1. Right-click the Start button and select Properties.
2. Click the Customize button next to Start Menu.
3. Under the Programs section, click the Clear List button.
4. Once you click the button, nothing seems to have happened. Don't worry; it has cleared your list so you do not need to keep clicking the button. Click OK when you are finished to close the Customize Start Menu window.
5. Then, click OK once more to close Taskbar and Start Menu Properties.
The program list is now clear and you can start from fresh building your list of frequently run programs.
