Recent Run Programs list

After clearing my Recent Run Programs list from my Start menu (WinXP SP2 Home), I am unable to get any to show up again. Must there be a certain number of times a program is run before it will show up on the list again? I have run several programs several times and nothing yet. Searching the 'net only comes up with ways to delete the Recent Run Programs list. Speaking of....
I should point out though, that I recently used a program that deletes computer tracks (history, cookies, temporary internet files, open/save files, recycle bin, etc... I'm sure you know what else this type of program is capable of). This also deleted my Recent Run Programs list. But I see no evidence within this software (Privacy Eraser Pro) that shows that the functionability of the Recent Run Programs list has been turned off and I am certainly unaware of any method that would shut this feature off.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
