Get Rid Of The ?Links? Folder

Links folder is a useful feature in Ie if your using Links bar. I use it to store my reguraly visited liks so that i can open it in 1 click. But it could be useless if you dont dont use links bar.



IE creates a folder called Links in the Favorites menu. Delete it and it comes back. This is a  big problem .  Plus once it's recreated windows adds it own msn links. So lets get rid of it.

This regisry hack will disable it. Go to regedit(Start>>Run>>Type regedit)

Navigate to:

HCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar


Now set the LinksFolderName String Value to a blank string. Then open IE and delete the Links folder from the Favorites menu.That's it. No more Links folder!
