I have a Toshiba laptop running Vista (bought it a couple months ago). It has IE 7 which seems to be doing strange things with the favorites. Using my primary login account I cannot get Favorites to show up in IE. If I login as Guest they are their and can be add/deleted, but not using my main login. I have tried importing Favorites and IE says it all worked, but they still won't show up. If I look in the file directory there is a Favorites folder under the user name and it has all the files I 'Added to Favorites', but if I am trying to organize or just see the Favorites using IE it is blank. When organizing Favorites and clicking on New Folder nothing happens, no error message, no action, nothing. I tried copying a bookmarks.htm and booksmarks.html file into my Documents and Favorities directory, but I'm not sure if that is needed (isn't that what Importing Favorites does?).
Am I missing something obvious? Mozilla seems to work fine (I tried importing the bookmarks from there a few times, no luck), IE works fine as Guest, but not as other Users.
Please help
