i have winXP installed on my vpc machine. i know where to access settings for adding the start menu to the dock and running programs. everytime i check the box for adding the start menu it never adds it to the dock and when i check the settings its unchecked again. when it rarely adds the windows apps to the dock it uses some wierd windows default icon instead of the programs icon itself.

what am i doing wrong?
is this normal?
shouldn't i see a shiny green utorrent icon on my dock when i turn it on inside my xp virtual machine?
 
UPDATE:

after upgrading to 7.0.3 from 7.0.1 it now works. ironically ive decided i don't want a start menu on the dock.

HOWEVER, what kind of icons are you guys seeing for your windows apps in the docks??
