I use IE 7 and usually want my Favorites to stick on the left side of the
screen. Ocassionally I will click the X to cause the collumn to go away and
give me more space on my screen. However, I will normally put it back
pretty soon. When I do I click the star and then always click the green
arrow to make it stick. Is there a setting in IE7 to cause the Favorites to
stick by default (clicking just the star and not also the green arrow)?

If you like having favorites left open, you can place your cursor on the line
between Favorites scrollbar and Page reading pane. When you see it change
into a double headed arrow, drag it towards the left of the screen. You can
then drag it back when you wish. It won't be completely closed and will be
accessible.

I'm not aware of a tweak for default open. Stick around, I'm sure there'll
be one.

That is an interesting idea. Also, I will check later to see if a tweak for
default open shows up. Thanks.

You're welcome. If you leave Favorites Open by using the Green Arrow to pin
it before you close an IE window; when you relaunch an IE window the
Favorites Center will be open to view.
