You're going through your Mr. Bean phase right now. But what happens when the winds of change make you a fan of the Spice Girls? When you add the pop divas' links to IE4, you may end up with a jumble of "Spicy Beans". Ooo...that's not pretty... So, how do you prevent this ugly scene from playing?

TIP Feel free to move things around IE4 will list your Favorites in alphabetical order. But let's face it, putting Spice Girls links next to sumo wrestling links just doesn't make any sense. If you want to shift things around, open your Favorites list and click the link you want to move. Hold your mouse button down as you drag the link to a new place in your Favorites. Release your mouse button to drop the link into place. Next time you open your Favorites list, you will see your new folder at the top. To see the links you have inside the folder, just click on the folder and a drop-down list of links will appear. If one day, you decide you don't want to look at the Spice Girls anymore, you may want to delete their links from your Favorites list. To delete a link or folder from your Favorites list:
