Having used Win XP Home for some time with only one user
name installed, I added a second name. Now the favourites
are not accessible in IE v6 but they appear in the correct
folders on the C: drive. How do I make them visible again
in IE?

Hi Euan,

You copied them to?
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Favorites

The full set of favorites exists in C:\Documents and
Settings\All Users\Favorites and in the individual folders
for the user names but with no result.

Hi,

And adding a second user is all you did?
Do they show up in the original single user account?
