I need some assistance, please. It appears that IE6 may
have changed the favorites destination folder. Now,
instead of seeing my usual favorites list, IE now has
the "C/Windows" folder in its place. I still have my
normal favorites in their folder, but I don't know how to
change the settings.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Have a Merry
Christmas and Happy New Year.

Steve,

Correct the registry entry for "favorites" shell foldershere:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Explorer\Shell folders
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Explorer\User Shell folders
