Howdy folks. Simple question: Why does Windows (I'm running XP HE SP2) sometimes (sometimes seemingly randomly) highlight certain elements of the Start Menu and what does this mean?

    it's highlighted usually means the software has just recently been installed.

    Click START

    Right click on an empty part of the start menu...like on your name. Choose PROPERTIES.

    Click the START MENU tab.

    Click CUSTOMIZE button

    Click ADVANCED tab.

    Deselect (uncheck) the HIGHLIGHT NEWLY INSTALLED PROGRAMS box and that option you have noticed....will stop.
