2 questions about vista

Without using the classic start menu, how can you make things under "all programs" cascade like the older versions of windows? Having to manually click to show items under a program folder is really bad (even win95 did that), having to to manually scroll down a list to see a list of all items under the programs is flat out piss poor design (even DOS could at least show me all the folders with dir /w). I tried a third party app I think called Vista Start Menu, which is good but I don't think I should have to have an app taking up 5 MB of memory just to do this (and also it didn't show the "startup" folder for some reason, makes me wonder what else it won't show that it should).

Also I don't think this is Vista specific, but I changed the Admin name, but still the folder under "Users" remains with the old name, and I still see references to that old name here and there. I don't see anything I can do about it, and a little googling shows me it would be dangerous to try. Am I stuck with this old name? (and just out of curiosity does Mac and Linux have a similar problem?).
