You can save your addess bar list by exporting this reg key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs which stores all the urls in your address bar list. And no it's not a complete list but a very easy one to back up and you can make a point to add your sites to it or clean it up as you please. Personally, I always include it in my backups.
