Finally I've figured out the reason, why FavRenAdd never worked for me!! It can easily be reproduced, and for a change, win98 is innocent :D

Since I'm using KM for a couple years already, my favorites folder has always been in the prefs! [b]But unlike the folders in the registry, as a pref it has a \ at the end.[/b] This difference is not expected by the macro and causes the bug. A little alert-test shows that the first character of the subfolder is missing.

On the other hand, KM insists on that \, or a click on the Favorites-Menu can't open that folder. (Other folders in the pref also have a backslash, as can be seen when typing "dir" in about:config)
Since I happen to use the same favorite folder as IE, the "cure" is ridiculously simple: 
Removing that pref, that's all :P

But it would be a nice twist, to be able to use different folders for different profiles, e.g. for a portable browser. This is fully supported by the favorites.dll, except that it can't rename-add :P
And I really love now kko's old macro to open the original 'IE-link-adder' ("FavoritesIE_Add" currently), but of course this will never allow either to use different favorite folders for different browser profiles (or so I suppose, since IE doesn't allow it, but perhaps a macro with some heavy programming still could, no idea)

One last weird thing, although FavRenAdd is actually working now (with the pref removed), the error console still shows five errors at browser startup, all in the last line of: _FavRenAdd_RunScript
exec("wscript.exe \"".$_FavRenAdd_Path."\" 3 \""execute"\"") ;
console: ) expected but found <name>[/quote]
