There should be a way to remove dead favourites. Or even better, remove them automatically on startup.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a favourite folder
2. Move it somewhere
3. Delete the folder
Actual results: Favourite is still listed and cannot be removed, apart from changing the config file, or recreating the folder in the place where it was initially +faved and then unfaving it.

test everything. hold on to the good.
I cannot reproduce this. I followed the exact steps you mentioned and I discovered not one but two ways of deleting it:
1) You see the dead fav in the list management which can be deleted immediately.
2) Or try going to the fav from menu or button and XY pops up a message that fav doesnt exist and should it be deleted.
or may be i did not understand you properly. Do you really mean fav folders??
I am using 4.60.0022 version.

Looks like I forgot list management, and (2).
I was thinking of the catalog. I was expecting a context menu for catalog items, or the ability to hit "delete" on an item, or something...

I checked too (3rd time now), and it disappears after restart.
Let me be more accurate.
1) I create a folder x on my desktop.
2) I use ctrl+b to mark x my fav folder.
3) I move x inside another folder y which is also on the desktop.
4) I delete x.
5) I restart and its now there in the catalog.
6) I delete the x from fav folder (from LM or by the pop up method)
7) I restart again.
I dont see it anymore in my catalog.
I use Windows XP SP2 Home edition.
