Heya all. Just upgraded to IE8 a few weeks ago. I am having a problem with the saves files/directory. It took some time but the problem appears to be that when I click the "favorites" button then the "Add to favorites" button, it brings up a list of folders to put the link under. It appears to be saving these at: Sean --> Favorites --> Links --> Sean When I am using IE8, then click on the favorites button and try to pull up a new link that I saved it is missing. When it open the favorites folders it appears to be doing so from: Local disk --> Users --> Sean --> Favorites So how do I get it to store the link under the same place it accesses the link? This was not an issue when using IE7. Thanks in advance

Supposedly Vista has a new Location tab for its Favorites, Properties, page. Then you could use it to move your Favorites to a different location if necessary... http://social.answers.microsoft.com...27a53f98#5aa9b88f-d3ea-45f3-ba4f-9fb8d124062c > > Thanks in advance Good luck Robert Aldwinckle ---
