IE8 Fav ordering

I have IE8, Win7 X64. When I add to my favorites, rename it, click sort by name, it closes quite rudely I might add.
Is there a way to keep it open after sorting?

Probably not as it just like selecting one of them to load. if you want to sort your favorites, you can do it under users\username and then sort it as you wish. I belive that the favorites is just a data base and changing it's sort order is not the same as sorting a directory listing under windows explorer.

Nope, sorry mate. It just closes as you have seen, but it does at least sort it....

To view and sort previoulsly added favorites, I use the Favorites folder in Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer).

Thanks guys, more Windows stuff to annoy me and put up with.
