They are enabled by default. You can right click on the start and select properties and there you'll find this setting.

I can tell you from running both xp home and pro that they are not enabled by default. I know on 2000 the option is on the general tab under the taskbar/start properties. I have yet to find it in XP.

If you don't have XP Styles enabled, the option is at the same place as in 2000
With XP styles enabled, I don't remember, I look later at home.

Ok, with XP Styles enabled, you must use the Classic start menu and click the Customize button to see the "Use personalized menus" option

Yeah I found that last night. I am suprised it isn't available in the XP Start menu. I thought that was a erally great UI innovation
