Start menu button

So how do you actually edit the start menu button??

I always figured the old hex editor on explorer.exe would be the way to go,
But i thought i'de ask before i went looking (to save myself a load of time)

Thanks guys
James

Get yourself a copy of Winboost and type in whatever you want.

Seems to me there is an easy way to do it, but it's been so long since I've heard about anyone doing it, for the life of me I can't remember. I'll do some checking around though.
