Hello Nightowl, and welcome to the forum.

What do you mean by changed?

CCleaner doesn't Clean IE favorites.

Did you include any custom files or folders?

Heres a link to CCleaners guide.

I don't recommend using the advanced section unless you have a specific need.

I have one custom folder that I empty now and then.

None of the cashe cleaning items should be changing the order of your favorites.

I did some forum searches and see that this can happen, but I don't think its CCleaners fault.

To state the obvious, I would leave Window Size/Location Cache unchecked.

Have you thought of updating to IE7?

After reading that Guide it works perfect with Advanced also and I'm testing 7 in another PC.

Hi Nightowl,
Welcome to the forums from me also. :D
I like your handle. Shucks, now I can't get it.
Some more information for you is listed below. They will help you with CCleaner.

Many here also use IE7PRO add-on with IE7. If you are inexperienced user then I would recommend IE7 with IE7Pro and do not try the newer Internet Explorers versions yet. They are still "buggy" while IE7 is in great shape.

The CCleaner Guide is pinned at the top of the discussion board.

It sounds like you're doing all the right things.

I would like to recommend one other program to help protect Internet Explorer.

This program Doesn't run as a process, just update and enable all protection once a week.
