Win XP Pro SP3

When I click start\programs I am presented with the list of programs. There are two separate lists in this column. One alpha list contains all programs that have an arrow on the right side to expand the menu. The other alpha list contains programs that do not have the arrow. This is terribly confusing because I must browse both lists when looking for a program. I have another computer that shows all programs in alpha order whether they have right side arrows or not. Sort by name doesn't help. It just arranges the programs by two lists - those with arrows and those without arrow. This is driving me nuts. How do I arrange ALL programs by alpha order, arrows or no arrows?
