While doing some desktop clean up last week, I renamed a couple of "custom
toolbar" links and created several new ones on the Windows Toolbar. Since
then, when I reboot, the old links appear and they, of course are empty.
I've tried removing them by right clicking the toolbar, selecting Toolbars
unclicking them, followed by adding the new ones by selecting New Toolbar. I
tried renaming them back to the original names and nothing seems to work. I
also downloaded a toolbar repair utility someone recommended in this group,
to no avail. In a word, I'm stuck!

Anyone have any suggestions?

Go to the folder that contains the shortcuts that are displayed in the
toolbar and do your work there. Which folder? Whatever the toolbar name
is.

That's exactly what I did. I've been using a single folder for toolbars for
years and have never run into this before.

One or more options/settings in an ever-growing number of third-party
applications may be disallowing the change(s) from "sticking". These include
but are not limited to Ad-aware's Ad-Watch, Spybot Tea Timer,
SpywareBlaster, SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor, Norton AntiVirus, McAfee
VirusScan and/or Antispyware, NOD32, and Zone Alarm (Free, Pro, & Security
Suite).
