MSIE doesn't store address book and bookmarks...err...favorites as HTML
files. There are probably 3rd party utilities that can do this. Or, if
you still have a version of Netscape, copy these files to Program
Files|Netscape|Communicator|Users and import from there. MS loves to
take Netscape users...they make it real easy. You may have to install a
copy of Netscape to accomplish this, but it's a better browser anyway.
