XP "All programs" on Vista by Jimbo on 05-01-2007 at 07:25 PM

That's not possible I believe, but you can always switch to the classic start menu by going to Taskbar and Start Menu Properties > Start Menu tab > and selecting Classic Start Menu. 

Which will show like this:

Why would you want to do that anyway? :P
Vista's start menu rocks, compared to older Windows' start menus.
You don't have a limit in how many items you can have in your start menu (you didn't have one in XP too, but items would start getting off the screen), and the search feature rocks :P

You can use a skinner. (StyleXP).. or styler, w.e its called. If there's one to make XP look like Vista, I'm sure the opposite is also true.
