Can't get rid of fake 'favorites'...

[Guest]

Could someone please suggest to me a method of getting rid of
fake--pornographic--'favorites' that keep inserting themselves in my
favorites menu? I delete them, empty my recycle bin, but the next time I
open up IE, the same ones are there again in my favorites menu. Thankyou.
