Hi,

I still have the same problem with "My Recent Items". It
empties every time I restart. And, it's not a public lab
computer. It's my own personal computer.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Mark

Ok can't blame the IT guys then. I'll keep thinking and
ck back if find any good news.

Does it do this with everyone that uses the computer - if
no one else you might try adding another user to check
this out.

Good luck. and post back
