I am running W7 IE9. When in IE9 and I click on the word Favourites I get a list with my favourites in it. However when I click one of the folders I have set up I get a blank box which is meant to have the internet addresses in it. Eg I click on a folder I have called Gardening and instead of the new list sliding out on the right hand side with all my addresses for Gardening in it - I can see a blank box about the length of all the addresses. It is just like the addresses are there but I can't see them. If I click my mouse over the box one of the addresses will open so its like they are invisable.
 
Sounds like a text color issue. Have you customed your fonts, themes or colors, either in Win 7 or IE ? Try resetting to default, and see if your folder contents become visible again. Or try FireFox, and let it import your favorites. I let my Win7 laptop upgrade to IE9, and IE is even less useable. I had to do some serious groping to find Windows Update. Perhaps there's an online tutorial to help us learn the revised interface.
