IE Favorites Rediection

I need a script to redirect a users IE Favorites to a central location on a
file server. Just as we have the option to redirect a users My Documents,
Desktop and Apllication Data folder from his profile.

I need the script desperately.

You can use the following two registry files to point the favorites at a
network share or reset it to the default.

Favorites-default.reg


REGEDIT4

; this sets the Internet Explorer "Favorites" location for both the current
and default users
; to the installed default of "%USERPROFILE%\Favorites"
;
; note that we use hex entries here because we are including an environment
variable in
; the string and this is the only way to ensure that it will be evaluated at
the proper time

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders]
"Favorites"=hex(2):25,55,53,45,52,50,52,4f,46,49,4c,45,25,5c,46,61,76,6f,72,69,74,65,73,00

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders]
"Favorites"=hex(2):25,55,53,45,52,50,52,4f,46,49,4c,45,25,5c,46,61,76,6f,72,69,74,65,73,00

Favorites-Network.reg


REGEDIT4

; this sets the Internet Explorer "Favorites" location for both the current
and default users
; to the network share "\\ems-nt1\Favorites$"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders]
"Favorites"="\\\\ems-nt1\\favorites$"

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders]
"Favorites"="\\\\ems-nt1\\favorites$"
