It would be massively helpful if people seeing this behaviour could attempt to determine if this is a loading or saving issue -- This can be done by editing the file in Zap or StrongEd and then starting NetSurf before looking in the NetSurf hotlist window to see if the added items are visible, and then quitting NetSurf and seeing if they get saved back out to the hostlist file. We did recently rewrite the hotlist code, so any hints are gratefully received. FWIW I note the Hotlist generated by #665 is missing the /head tag.

Using RO6.20: When quitting NetSurf #600 (5 Nov 2012), it consistently re-writes my Hotlist as a 90K file. When quitting NetSurf #659 (18 Nov 2012), it consistently re-writes my Hotlist as an 89K file. The difference in file-lengths seems to be caused by #600 writing amp; whereas #659 writes , however I can't persuade either NetSurf version to truncate the Hotlist. Tony

I imported a 32K hotlist from the backup of the late Iyo, and ran NetSurf, and then quitted it. There was a bleep, and 32K suddenly became 8K. Is it something to do with the size of the hotlist perhaps? Looking back, I have had a couple of unexplained bleeps when shutting down the machine, and I now know why!
