MORE INFORMATION

One of the new features in Internet Explorer 5 is the Import/Export Wizard, which can be used to import existing Netscape Navigator bookmarks or cookies to favorites. Although the Import/Export Wizard's primary purpose is to assist in importing existing Netscape Navigator bookmarks or cookies, it can also be used to import or export Internet Explorer 5 cookies or favorites. Favorites are exported to the Bookmark.htm file by default. You can open the Bookmark.htm file directly in the browser or import it to another computer running Internet Explorer 5.

To start the Import/Export Wizard, click Import/Export on the File menu in Internet Explorer, and then follow the instructions on your screen. For additional information about Import/Export Wizard, please see the following articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
