Thanks very much for this useful information! I could not find the Favorites folder in my laptop, so I resorted to deleting them manually. It wasn't that bad, using keyboard shortcuts. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP Pavilion Media Center PC m7350n

If you mean the favorites bar in the browser, right click the toolbar area at the top of IE, and untick Favorites bar. 
This will turn off the favorites bar of course. If I am wrong, can you post a screenshot? Screenshots and Files - Upload and Post in Seven Forums
