what you have to do is set it to "hidden" and it won't appear in your favs

The links reference in the registry is here (see below)
You could simply rename it "links" to whatever you want.


Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar]
"LinksFolderName"="Links"

Yeah, do that. Then go to the top right corner where the other 'Links' part is in the IE toolbar, right-click it and uncheck 'Links'.

All gone :)
