Hey. Trying to remove the Help and Support listing from the Start Menu in WinXP. I know I did it before, not in XP. I think it might have been 2K. Any help appreciated.

Right click your Start, choose properties, make sure its on Start Menu then click Customize. Choose Advanced up top in Tab's. Its in there or do you want the registry tweak? Might be listed in Windows Tips and Tweaks Forum. Think I seen it there.
