As promised, here is my module that I put together to make managing Internet Explorer favorites. The module is called IEFavorites and has 3 functions available:

• Get-IEFavorite
• Add-IEFavorite
• Set-IEFavorite

There are also 4 aliases associated with this module:

• gief (Get-IEFavorite)
• aief (Add-IEFavorite)
• sief (Set-IEFavorite)
• rief (Remove-Item)

Simply import the module file and you are off and running!

Import-Module .\IEFavorites.psm1 -Verbose

Viewing the favorites can be done like this:

Get-IEFavorite

Adding a new Favorite is handled like so:

Add-IEFavorite -Name Twitter -Folder SocialNetwork `
-Url http://twitter.com -Verbose

If I want to remove a favorite, I just pipe my results of Get-IEFavorite into Remove-Item.

Get-IEFavorite -Name Drudge* -File | 
Remove-Item -Verbose

Lastly, editing a favorite is done using Set-IEFavorite:

Get-IEFavorite -Name Twitter* | 
Set-IEFavorite -NewName Facebook -NewUrl http://Facebook.com -Verbose

That is all to the module. Check it out and let me know what you think!
