Moved my 'Favourites' from IE8 on one computer to IE8 on a new computer and they all transferred OK but in reverse order,'z' at the top now! Is there a way to correct this please? (I used the export/import function of each browser).

Click on the favourites menu, Select 'organize favourites' then in the opened window right click and select 'sort by name'

Well that worked well, thanks GG.

Next question: I have the choice of IE8 in either 32 or 64 bit mode, OS is Windows 7, 8gbs of RAM, what are the advantages/disadvantages of these modes please?

(I have done a forum search but I'm only looking for specific advantages or disadvantages of IE8 in 32 or 64 bit mode, Thanks).

Since you have a 64 bit OS you may as well run IE in 64 bit mode, but I doubt you'll notice very much difference, I have a 64 bit version of FireFox called 'pale moon' which I tried out but I don't notice much difference in speed and when you think about it it still takes the same time to carry out the liveware inputs, the upload/download speeds are the same, so all we are really going to get is a slightly faster page rendition.

No doubt someone else will come along with a different view in a minute. :)

Same as GG. I have other things to do, rather than playing spot the difference. Couldn't see a difference, but didn't look too hard.
