Do you wish there's a way to access shortcuts inside "magic folders" such as the Control Panel, Printers, and Dial-Up Networking, without having to open the folder first? Following steps will create cascading menus for items in these special folders, giving you instant access to them from the Start Menu:

Right click on the "Start" (menu) button and select "Explore"
Right click inside the "Start Menu" folder (which should automatically show up after step #1), and select "New | Folder"
To create a cascading Control Panel menu, type following for the newly created folder's name:

Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}

To create a cascading Printers menu, repeat step #2 and type following for the folder's name:

Printers.{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}

To create a cascading Dial-Up Networking menu, repeat step #2 and type following for the folder's name:

Dial-Up Networking.{992CFFA0-F557-101A-88EC-00DD010CCC48}
