Why not use a file browser, e.g., My PowerDesk, which doesn't always
revert to icons like the MS Windows browser. Locate your Favorites
folder and use the browser to create subfolders beneath it, then just
drag your items to the appropriate subfolders. I customize the toolbar
to put "Create New Folder" at the top-left of the toolbar, for
efficiency. It's under Options> Customize Toolbar> File - Create
Folder.

The location of your Favorites folder varied by OS. In Win9x it's
under Windows; in Win2k and XP it's under Documents and
Settings/<username>.

There are fair number of candidates for that honor. The description of
this app doesn't impress me much. Why do you think Simple Bookmark is
the *best*?

<q>
Simple Bookmark 1.1 Freeware
Simple Bookmark converts your collection of Internet Explorer favorites
into a single HTML file, that can be opened by a web browser or even
used as a web page.

Especially since you can export your IE favorites to a single HTML file
without using a third party app.

I'd like to join in and request a bookmark manager as well. There are
many out there but I haven't found a decent one that works on firefox,
opera, and ie.
Any recommendations would be appreciated.

I'm looking for a *great* bookmark manager.

I want to list the browers/shells I use and their paths and then be able
open a URL in any of the browsers from the right-click menu.

I want the manager to tell me when I have already bookmarked a URL and
offer to save it as an alias.

I want to be able to display (and edit) the bookmarks either as a tree
(folders) or in a sortable table (like AM-DeadLink).

I want to be able to search the file for names, URLs, keywords (need to
have a notes field). . .

I want to be able to check the bookmarks file using Xenu or AM-DeadLink.

I want to be able to copy a group of URLs and paste them into an email,
post, text file etc.

I want to be able to import and export the bookmark file to
Netscape/Mozilla.

It would be nice to be able to create a web page from the bookmarks file
- with a folding tree structure - options to select/deselect bookmarks
for inclusion/exclusion.

What other things would a *great* bookmark manager do?

I want all that too, Susan, and like you have not found it yet. I would even
pay for it (oops is that a bad word here??).

Hi Andy,

I'm afraid I have bad news for you. ACF's "Clueless Old-Timer" medals
are only given for *original* exhibitions of non-thought. Your entry has
been disqualified by the judges. . .
