Internet Explorer / IE >> Tracking usage of favorites and creating list sorted by # of visit

I would like to track my usage of my Favorites and to create a list of all my
favorites sorted by # of times visited. Anyone know of a way to do this or a
tool that will do this? I've tried a handful of the most popular
favorites/bookmark organizers with no luck.

Thanks,
John

Internet Explorer / IE >> Tracking usage of favorites and creating list sorted by # of visit Go into C:\Documents and Settings\User\Favorites
Click on View
Click on Choose Details
You can check Date Accessed or any option available to you
Click Ok

Upon opening your folder, you will then be able to select your viewable
option by clicking on View>Arrange Icons By

Once you launch an IE window, however, these options will not be available.

Internet Explorer / IE >> Tracking usage of favorites and creating list sorted by # of visit Thanks, but this doesn't get to what I'm trying to do. It lets you see the
*last* time it was used, but not how many times it was used.

Internet Explorer / IE >> Tracking usage of favorites and creating list sorted by # of visit History is what can be viewed by Site, Date, Most visited, Order visited but
not Favorites. An MS oversight mayhaps.

Internet Explorer / IE >> Tracking usage of favorites and creating list sorted by # of visit Perhaps an oversight, but then again that's what API's are for right? I'm
suprised I haven't been able to find a 3rd party add-in to do this.

Internet Explorer / IE >> Tracking usage of favorites and creating list sorted by # of visit The way I understand it, if you open Organize Favorites, it should show the
Last Time Visited; however, I have and there is no date given.

Internet Explorer / IE >> Tracking usage of favorites and creating list sorted by # of visit Well, this wouldn't help. I'm not looking for last time visited, only the
total number of times visited in a given time period. Thanks anyway.
