this may turn out to be a stupid one, but since i'm ignorant and lazy, might as well ask it here. i'm moving soon back to slovakia but i kind of like my set of favorites i have developed here in limeyland. whats an easy way of carrying over my favorites and dumping them into my browser at home?

(this would probably be an XP to XP in case it makes any difference)

i carried my favorites over computers, but i probably did it the retarded way- i just saved my favorites folder on a disc and then on the new computer, i just transferredcd the contents of my old folder to the new one...

That's the easiest way. You can also use the "Files and Settings Transfer Wizzard".

Start -> All programs -> System Tools -> Files and Settings Transfer Wizzard.

Go through the steps, stopping to tell the wizzard that this is the old computer.

Then select other in the save to screen, select a place to save your settings. (hopefully you have a CD burner... but save it to a temp location for now.)

On the next screen, select "files only" and check the box that allows you to select individual componates.

Add the favorites folder to the list of folders, and remove everything else (unless you want to take that too)
The favorites folder is located in "My Computer"->"C:\"->"Documents and Settings"->"[your user name]"->"Favorites"

Either way will work, but if you want to take your desktop, fonts, documents, etc... then you have to do it the second way.

In case this does not work, write this down before you go:

If you're using IE, just click File -> Import and Export...
Then follow the prompts to export your favorites.
