I have Windows XP and the menu (in classic mode) certainly does not show 
"Internet Explorer (Web Browser), but just "Internet Explorer".
In "Luna mode", IE and OE is a large item in the start menu, and looks 
like this:
-------------------------
Internet Explorer
Web Browser
------------------------- (menu seperator)
Outlook Express
Email
-------------------------

The functional name is below the application name, and only when not in 
classic mode, and only for a few applications.
