  • Answer:

    Under C: Documents and Settings there is a folder called "Favorites" which has all the bookmarks, and can be copied and placed on another computer

Yep, go to this site http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ & download Firefox and install it. Once you have installed Firefox, go to this site here https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2410/ & install the Foxmarks extension, once installed restart Firefox & the extension should go through steps with you to create a Foxmarks account. It's a really cool way to do it, I have 2 computers, both with Firefox+Foxmarks & FirefoxPortable+Foxmarks installed on a USB drive, And all my favorites/bookmarks are always synchronised. edit: Oh and when you're installing Firefox there should be an option to import favorites from Internet Explorer. The only difference about Firefox favorites is that they're called Bookmarks :)

Answer by Goth reject is to the point. to To access Documents & settings tools/Folder Options/Show hidden files. After you find the Favorites folder with a STAR Icon Copy it in cd or floppy and transfer to your other computers Now Open IE/File/Import & Export in other computers and select Import Favorites option.

If you have an external hard drive its really easy. Click on organize favorites, highlight your favorites list and click move. Move the files to your hard drive. You could also copy your list and insert it into an e-mail to yourself. You could also copy the list, make a document and print it out. I hope you have luck with one of these.

You can open your favorites and click/drag to your desktop, then put those files into a folder of choice.
