There are some programs that are highlighted in the start menu because I haven't used them yet. I overall love this feature, but don't want it to apply to a few specific programs.

How do I turn it off?( ONLY for these few files)... Is there an option or something?

I believe it's all or none. You can run those select few programs a few times, clearing the highlight. – Hand-E-Food Oct 10 '11 at 3:18

For individual items that display in the start menu that you do not wish to show - right click then click remove from list, it should not display again.
For:- if you do not want flesh installs to show in menu'( have not use them yet )
On the Start button, bottom left, right click and select properties,
Click on the start menu tab -> click on Customize Start Menu .
Uncheck highlight newly installed programs (between Games and Music) then click OK then Apply then OK

For recently used items/ programs not to show (they can show from other sessions even if not used in this one) :-Click on start button right click and select properties .Click on the start menu tab -> in privacy uncheck items list you do not wish to be shown.
