John,
You sound really stressed.I think I can guess what's=20
happened.
If they are favourites that have suddenly appeared=20
without you putting them there,chances are,I.E. has been=20
hijacked.
Visit
http://cexx.org for assistance in removing the=20
hijacker.
Under ordinary circumstances,deleting old favourites is=20
easy:right click>select delete>confirm deletion,empty=20
recycle bin.
