applications do not show up in Start, or in Start-All Programms or on the Desktop

[aa]

Quite a number of application after installation do not show up in Start, or
in Start-All Programms or on the Desktop. But they are shown on the hard
drive in Program Files and can be started from there.
At the same time there are applications which show up everywhere.
Why is that?

This happens when the installation program fails to create the
appropriate shortcuts. You need to create them manually.

For sime reason the program didn't place a shortcut to the

Simple: Using the right mouse button, drag the application's
executable from its current location into
c:\documents and settings\all users\start menu.

When prompted, select "Create shortcut here".
