editing Classic start menu

I like to make my own folders & pull the programs into them.
For example Photo, then I pull PhotoShop, MS Digital Imaging, Picasa2 etc
into the Photo folder. This seems to be an impossible task with Vista.
Is there a work around? or am I stuck with having a start menu that takes
forever to locate programs in.
No I do not like the Vista view.
Thanks for any help!

Right click the Start menu and click Open All Users

or
C:\Users\User_name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windo ws\Start
Menu\Programs\

Once you are in the explorer view, you can create folders, edit the copy and
paste and so on.
