I am trying to use the UI version of IE rather than the desktop version. I can't seem to find any of the menus that show up in the desktop version. Organize Favorites is one in particular. Is there a way to organize Favorites in the UI version or do I have to use the Desktop version for that sort of stuff?

Thanks for any insight, Jim

The ui explorer is an app and you can't load any of those junk 3rd party tool bars onto it... that's kind of the point, as this needs less cpu/ ram to open a page and doesn't get hijacked by the same junk that attacks other browsers.
