RE: IE 7.0 problem with deleting individual web entry

I too have a problem with a favorite listing. The listing is a folder
entitled "Links" and I'm not aware of ever putting it there, plus it is
empty. I've deleted it from the favorites over a hundred times since Jan 08
but it comes back every time I start IE 7.06. Worse, I've even tried a safe
mode boot up to delete it there but the results remain the same.
HELP would be appreciated as it's an annoying problem.

That is the folder where the links on the Links bar are stored. IE will
replace it if you delete it. If you just don't want to see it, change its
attributes to hidden.

Unfortunately, I did not list that but I've done it too and the folder still
shows up under "favorites".
Thanks for the try though.
