    They are also stored in the registry under

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs"

    In order to add favourites dynamically is it best to add them to the registry directly?

    I made an app a while ago that just creates the .url files in my user profile at school when I log on my account, since it never remembers my favourites. Is this just as good?

    Yes, it is just as good.

    The only reason for my post is that I believe in options. Matt's post is easiest, but I believe folks should know that there are other ways if the easiest isn't working for them.
