IE6 on Win2k
Allready tried this method There are no virus/malaware the url's are corrupt (8 of them) ie When viewed in IE the url instead of being a short name, comprises some 200 charactors (30 words) and as such I beleive exceeds the win/IE limit I'd copy and paste if I could, but I cannot even do that with them.

If you can't delete the entire folder in Documents and Settings as Frank
suggested, I would suggest you ask in an Internet Explorer newsgroup. For Internet Explorer questions not pertaining to Outlook Express, please post to one of the following: IE6 Specific Newsgroup: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...er.ie6.browser IE General newsgroup: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...plorer.general -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "DL" address@invalid wrote in message ...
