Cool. I wasn't aware of that shortcut. Thanks.

Hi,

an alternative method of opening your favorites folder in Windows explorer 
is to navigate to Organize Favorites on the Favorites menu in Internet 
Explorer, and then press shift+enter, rather than enter. Windows Explorer 
then opens at your favorites folder.

Mike,

I suggest that you do all the moving and creation of new folders using
MS-Explorer and not within the context of the favorites organizer in IE.

Go to your Documents and Settings folder and then open the one with your 
user
name or perhaps just "user" if you've not configured one. In that folder you
should find a folder "favorites". Open it and you should see all your 
favorites
and any folders already created.

You can easily create new folders and move favorites to them and clean up. I
find it much easier than using IE's favorites organizer.

Dave
