Hello, I have a quick question about the XP Start Menu. Where does Windows
store the shortcuts for the common programs that appear?

Regards,

No where - they aren't shortcuts. They use the original thing (shortcut on All Programs). If you delete the original then it won't work.

Right click on one and select "Properties"

Does it have a shortcut tab or does it not!?!?!?
 
It depends if the original item is a shortcut or not. But you are not editing the Start Panel MFU item but the underlying thing it's counting.
 
Thanks for all the responses I guess I just didn't know and oh well.

Start -> parameters -> taskbar & start menu -> check start menu ( not
classical start menu) then personalize : there you should be able to put
program shortcuts either in teh "normal part" of strat menu ( where it is
called "all programs") or in the "favorites" part of the strat menu.
