[byron]

I had nothing but grief from when I ahemm "upgraded" to Internet Explorer Version 7:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: ......so I switched to Mozilla Firefox which is GREAT!!!!!:) :) :) :)......but I've got heaps and heaps of good stuff on "Favourites" on IE.......does anyone know of a way to bring over all the Favourites to "Bookmarks" on Firefox???:(

Cheers guys, thanking all you genii in advance!;)

Mine all came over with the install of Firefox.

Try this page: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Mozilla_Suite_:_Issues_:_Importing_IE_Favorites

IE7 did seem to crash a lot initially but seems OK now. That said I find IE is still required for a lot of pages that just aren't Firefox friendly and are obviously built for IE.

Go to Bookmarks | Manage bookmarks

Then File | import

Ditto with mine, there is an import function in tools for that purpose, as well.

My only use for IE6, is now the MS Update site.
Recently, I have found sites that are built for Firefox. Beauty, no more spoofing IE in Firefox. Of course, using Linux, the native browser does it all.
But that is another story.

Shorty.

If you use Firefox, but like the IE method of bookmarking ( IE favorites folder rather than a bookmarks html page)

Try this little firefox extension

Allows you to use IE favorites direct from firefox...
