My Music is Missing (Restricted) – Start Menu

Windows XP My Music menu is missing from the Start Menu and is also missing when you try to customize the Start Menu using the Taskbar and Start Menu applet in the Control Panel. The most likely cause of this is malware utilizing Group Policy Objects which enforces policies for system settings and/or user accounts settings. The Group Policy for Remove My Music icon from Start Menu will cause the My Music menu to be restricted/disabled (removed) from Start Menu when enabled.

Group Policies are typically applied at businesses to control access to programs, system properties, and user account settings. For Home users, My Music menu can be removed from the Start Menu by these Group Policies but usually malware is the culprit. If you are a home user and the My Music menu is missing from the Start Menu and looks like the pictures below then there is a good chance you are infected with malware.
