Thanks, Special K. I'll save that link. However, I found a solution to the problem
I had by mistake, actually, and I want to post it here in case someone else has this
problem. After searching various forums including the MS IE7 forum but having no
luck, I gave Best Buy (where I bought the new PC) Geek Squad a call. The guy I
talked to was stumped too. As a first step towards diagnosing and fixing it, he
had me copy move drag My Favorites to my desktop but it was obvious that he really
didn't know how to approach this. To both our surprise, that fixed the problem.
When I saved a Favorite, it saved it to Favorites as IE shows them, not a different
folder as it was doing before. The Geek Squad guy was very surprised and had no
idea why that fixed it. It's as if just moving My Favorites re-set something or
maybe they just won't work when in My Documents. I didn't want My Favorites on
my desktop, though, so I just moved the folder so it was outside of My Documents
where it had been. It still works. Thanks for your reply. I'm saving the link
you posted in case I have a need for it in the future.
