Got a new machine with W7/IE8. Periodically, IE8 loses it's mind and drops all my "remembered" sites and log ins. Anyone know if there's a cure for this that does not include Firefox/some other browser?

Instead of IE favorites, you could use google favorites. It remembers all the bookmarks in some cloud.
The reason for the lost favorites are updates. The past two months, IE has had updates that make it delete favorites.

Please don't confuse my personality with my attitude. My personality is obviously me, But my attitude depends largely upon you.
Guess I should have explained a bit more. I'm not talking about favorites, rather the list of recently visited sites in the address bar drop down. It periodically vanishes. I seldom use favorites.
Thanks, Corey!

Your "history" files are being deleted. CCleaner will do that, for instance. And you can turn it off.
This happens with many "cleaner utilities" and may even be an option when you close the program, or maybe you've got something set to delete them on reboot. I don't remember an option to do that in IE itself, but it might be there...
