It's been a while since I've used earlier OS's but try trashing the Finder
preferences as well as Apple Menu Preferences and restarting. You might have
to reset a few things but it's no big deal and probably will fix you up.

Also try rebuilding the desktop (CMD-OPT on boot).

I think it's an apple menu preference. There's an "Apple menu items"
control panel, or used to was at least, and it gave one the option of
turning off submenus in the Apple menu.
