Search Favorites

[Dave B]

I have an awful lot of "Favorites" (don't ask). They are divided into many
folders, but it would be very helpful to be able to do a search. Is there
any way to 'Search' the Favorites list?
Thx

Dave

You can search the Favorites folder itself in Explorer rather than
Internet Explorer.

You can get one of the many free search applications.
Quick Favorites Search http://chris.id.au/qfs/default.htm
Favorites Search, here: http://www.dzsoft.com/

Another option is to create a decent html file and have a shortcut to
that or make it your home page and search it with Ctrl+F. I use this:

Hi Dave - Well, two solutions, both free:

First, Quick Favorites Search, here: http://chris.id.au/qfs/default.htm
and then Favorites Search, here: http://www.dzsoft.com/

I use both of them and they both work well. Favorites Search is an IE
toolbar which opens a frame in your browser, while QFS opens a separte
window, but offers more versatile search parameters and is faster. Both
Recommended.

And a third, but not free, solution is PowerMarks, here:
http://www.kaylon.com/power.html This is a BHO which is very much more
powerful and with considerable additional capabilities. Also
Recommended.
