1. Is it a Windows system? And what version if it is? Is it connected |
|
to the other system by a network?

3. Just backup your Favorites on to a disk and copy them over to |
|
the other system.
Access the Favorites through this method:
C: - Documents and Settings - Your user name
Just copy the Favorites over to the CD or what ever. Then on the other system you can either import them from the device or copy them to the folder as above.

The direct copy methods mentioned here will work. What I did is export my bookmarks to Yahoo. You can them use them on any PC anywhere by logging in to MyYahoo. You can then import them to another PC.
