we need a screen shot of your moz imported ie bookmarks, and I need output from 
|dir /s /b /a| from your favorites directory.  If you have anything that you 
don't want posted online i suggest you try pruning them out. if they fix the 
problem then you'll have to spill.

look hard at the list of favorites that are imported. If every favorite up 'Favorite X' is imported
then we need to look at favorite X. Not too long ago there were several bugs of the style;
"IE favorites that contain such and such offending character" cause automatic import to be
truncated.

yep this is the normal dupe. ".." messes up.

If anyone wants the list we can attach it.
