    Hi all,

    Just wondering. . . Is there a registry hack one can use to force the "Favorites" list to scroll instead of 'cascade' ?

    As always, any and all help is greatly appreciated. :)

    I don't think that I have seen one.

    You can try a couple of things to shorten or improve the list.

    1. Categorize your sites into common folders to make the individual lists shorter

    2. Create a shortcut with the properties of C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /n,/e,c:\Windows\Favorites and drag it onto your Quicklaunch bar.
    This will open Explorer and let you tailor the view

    3. Same as #2, except drag the shortcut into \Windows\favorites\Links
    And Select the Links ToolBar.
    Now you can click on the Links icon in the toolbar, select the shortcut and Explorer will start.

    With the latter 2 methods, the sites will be always sorted and you won't need to periodically Sort Favorites
