I remember once I could lock the items on the Start Menu so you can't
drag them. How is this done? I have forgotten now I have formatted my
computer.

I have formatted my computer.

Right click an open area of the Taskbar.
Select Properties from the menu.
Click on the Start Menu tab.
Hit the Customize button.
Click on the Advanced tab.
Remove the check mark from the box next to "Enable dragging and
dropping".
Click OK twice

You can also acheive the same result through editing the
registry:

Disable Drag-and-Drop on the Start Menu
