Contact favorites are listed on the inbox menu for easy accessibility when composing emails or instant messaging.

I unfortunately do not use internet explorer nine, but you can give this a quick whirl. If you're using windows XP, go to C:\Documents and Settings\Your User Name\Favorites, and verify your favorites are still there. If they are, you should be able to click the drop down menu in the favorites menu (in internet explorer) that says "Add to favorites", on the drop down menu should be import / export. You can import your favorites folder from there.
If you use windows 7 or Vista the folder is C:\Users\Username\Favorites, and everything else should be the same. Hope this helps!

Hi,

Are you using internet explorer (IE 7)? or you are using the internet explorer with an old version. If your internet is unable to load some website you may need to restore its settings. but before doing it, you need to export your favorites first.

1. Open internet explorer then go to file then export your favorites.

2. Click on Tools then internet option, the go to Advance tab

3. for Internet explorer 7(newer version) click on reset. Restore for old internet explorer version.

4. Import your favorites after the restoration.

Keep me posted.
