Is it normal for the all programs menu to be only two columns
wide?

All of my programs don't fit in list? I am using the xp
default menu.

PLEASE HELP!!!
 
Maybe you should reorganize your start menu folders.Not every program you
install needs its own folder neither are all of those start item shortcuts
needed.I for example have a startup folder called Audio where I place all audio
related programs,I also remove all unnecesary short cuts like Help,What's New
etc etc.So under my Audio folder I have subfolders for the various audio
programs.
This can be done by right clicking that Start button and opening "Explore All
Users".The rest works just like creating and moving folders and files in
Explorer.

Rt. Click the start button, go to properties, click customize,
Advanced. In the box scroll down and uncheck scroll programs.
That should take care of it.

Depends on how wide the columns are and whether that is all that will
fit. Width of column is decided by the longest name - r-click long ones
like 'Bloggsoft Finest Software utility pack' and rename to something
shorter
