Okay, got it. However, the vast majority of Windows programs
install such items, so I don't think POV is wrong here.

I tend to let the contents of the start-menu-folders as-installed,
except that I usually add the version number to the program name
(QuickTime becomes QuickTime 5.0.1).

Then I organize the whole folders.

My Start menu set-up is something like (tree is top-down)

Start
  Programs
    Multimedia
      Winamp
      Irfanview
      Quicktime
    Graphics Creation
      Paint Shop Pro
      POV-Ray
etc. (all of these are folders)
