Way too many !!!
It takes my computer about a minute to go from the top ones to the bottom.
I need to sort them out some time.

I have a good memory, but for sites I visit often I usually bookmark them. For others, I'd bookmark them if they looked useful so I don't forget them or if they have a convoluted URL I'll probably forget, or if I don't think I'll visit often or something...

Re: How many favourites ???

I have 49 main categories and goodnes knows how many sub-categories. I started counting the actual links but gave up at 221 after getting to the bottom of the 4th category. I reckon it's probably into the thousands.

Re: How many favourites ???

Do you use the IE personalised favorites ( where it hides(demotes) the least used options).

Do you find that it often demotes sites which you've been on that week, yet leaves others which you know you've not been to for weeks in the main list ?

Odd

Its does it for me on a number of PC's I use with various Windows OS and IE variant's, so must be a bug or something very odd/illogical in the process used to promote/demote personalised items

Re: How many favourites ???

Hmm, I've just checked Properties on the Favorites folder and it tells me that I've got 2730 in 229 categories. Does this make me seriously sad? It's more likely that (as my wife delights in continually telling me) I'm a very untidy person who's always leaving things lying around and never tidying them up. :)

EDIT Oh, and I always bookmark even the most vaguely usefull looking address that I come across.
