Classic Shell has been around for 4 years.
It has recently attracted attention from a wider audience because of its Start Menu add on/replacement called Classic Start Menu.
IMHO it is the best freeware Windows 8 start menu program.
Version 4.0.4 general release (Jan, 2014):
New ADMX files to allow controlling all settings through group policy
Secure download of language files and new versions
Multiple minor improvements and bugfixes
