All Icons in Favorites changed

[Smitty]

Is there an easy way to restore Icons to favorites list?
I have had (3) rather severe attacks (TCP data changed) and after each done registry cleanup.
Perhaps I removed something necessary.
At any rate icons changed and favorite addresses modified.
What is best restore?

Thanks

Smitty

Download and use TweakUI to repair your icons.

Er wait... if that didn't work, I don't exactly.

Are you perhaps referring to favicons?
If so <a target="_blank" href=http://www.zdnet.com/downloads/stories/info/0,10615,77423,00.html>PC Magazine's FavOrg</a> is one way to go.

FavOrg scans the Web sites in your favorites list for favicons--custom icons provided by the Web site. The icons are displayed on the Favorites bar, the Favorites menu, and the Address bar. Custom icons make the Favorites list easier to scan, letting you locate a given shortcut faster. Microsoft added the custom icon feature to IE5; FavOrg brings this functionality to IE4 as well. Favicons are usually lost when you delete your Temporary Internet Files, but FavOrg preserves them. The program also lets you associate any icon you choose with a given shortcut, even if no favicon is provided. Since FavOrg must check the validity of an Internet shortcut before attempting to download the favicon, it automatically flags dead links as it goes through your Favorites list. If you like, it can update redirected links or reset dead links to the site's root. FavOrg was written by Patrick Phillipot and first appeared in "PC Magazine," November 7, 2000. Source code is included.

This advice is free.
You might only get what you paid for.

Thanks to both you guys.
I didn't have TweakUi...Unbelievable, I know!

Favicons works great..I have had a lot of trouble with a particular website which penetrates my firewall like it was <font color=red>cream-cheese</font color=red> and they alter little things like this...

Anyway, got em back in spades..
