Question re: Win Me / IE 5.5 Favorites

OK, to put it bluntly, how do I kill IE 5.5's Favorites auto-sort feature? I have well over 100 Favorites in my list, and it keeps screwing up and putting links I rarely use at the top, and my "use every day" links (like Slashdot) get hidden. Additionally, the Favorites folder "Links" will not go away when deleted, and neither will the "From ICQ" folder that ICQ created during install.

Anyone know the reg keys where I can get at the guts of this feature and deactivate / change it, or at the very least kill those two folders? (I checked in Win Explorer, they aren't read-only; they get deleted fine, it's just that they come right back and waste space)

Thanks in advance for any help rendered, =)
