Missing programs in the Start Menu - All Programs list

[Guest]

When I open the All Programs list under the Start Menu, all of the programs
that used to be there are missing. Only the most recently installed programs
are present. What happened to all of the others, and how do I get them back.
I've run Norton Systemworks to make sure there's no viruses, and that any
registry problems have been cleared, but the problem persists. Any help
would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -Leon Myerson
