[Robert00000]

Whats the easiest way to save all the folders and links from IE browser favourites list?

Keep a copy of the actual favourites folder...

edit: C:\Documents and Settings>*Your Profile Name*>Favourites

Just keep a copy of that Favourites folder

If you use MyIE2 (http://www.myie2.com/), you can export your favorites as a single HTML file, like Netscape, Mozilla, Firefox does automatically.
You can import them just as easily. It's very handy.

IE will export favorites to another browser or to a .htm file.

IE>file>import and export

In 1999 I started developing my own Desktop Search Engine.

The only problem I had when changing computers was my favourites.
I made a small change to the program to allow me to archive them
just like I do Video, Music, Pics and text.

When archiving pictures it takes 2 lines of text. The first line had the
search information and the 2nd line had the path to the picture. So
instead of loading the picture. If I found HTTP on the 2nd line I put
the URL as the default in an input box. I copy and paste this into the
browser.

I can move my favourites to any computer anytime without disturbing
the existing ones. Currently I have my "internet news", "TrapLine"
and "other forum" postings archived. Random or Sequential access.
