As far as moving URL's, I just grabbed the favorites folder where I keep
them, moved it to floppy and then dropped it on my favorites folder in my
new machine. Moved all the URL's right over. had to do a little organizing
but all turned out well.

Hope this helps,

Peg

Hi Tom,
Another option you might want to try would be to use the site
www.hotlinks.com to upload all your bookmarks/favorites.   This password
protected site lets you access your URL's from any machine.  It also does a
periodic check to see that your URL's are still valid.

Good luck.
