IE7 won't accept new favorites

I am running Windows XP Professional, Version 2002, SP3 in a corporate environment. I use IE7 version 7.0.5730.11.

When I try to add a website as a favorite it doesn't "stick". I can see it on my favorites list...but then without any other action from myself it will disappear. Something is deleting them. The weird thing is...not all get deleted. Some stick and some don't, but most don't.

What is going on!??

Welcome to TSF

Seems to be a common issue but no real solution

Is your Favorites folder in the default location:
C:\Documents and Settings\user account name\Favorites ?

Try the procedures in this article:

Uninstalling /reinstalling IE7 may help. If XP SP3 was installed after IE7,
it should be uninstalled before uninstalling IE7.

When installing/reinstalling IE7 disable antispyware/antivirus programs and
follow other tips/warnings at http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html
