Safely Delete the Temporary Internet Files

The temporary I.E. files folder is a cache for web pages that you have
visited. I don't know why Microsoft sets the default so high, but I have
seen 2gb set for storage. This and other setting can be changed to decreace
the size of the storage area, and supposedly delete the I.E. temp file when
you close the browser.

Lost Faviorites Menu
Courtesy of Ramesh:
You need to edit the registry. See "Description of the Microsoft Windows
registry" article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;256986
If you don't prefer editing the registry, use this utility and reset the
Favorites path to defaults.

* Select Favorites from the listbox and note down the value there.
* Optionally, you can backup the current user shell folder settings by

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
