This is one handy VERY little program I had to search for when transfering my Bookmarks/Favorites from one computer to another.

The only place I could find it for free was a German website.
It's ok, there was a translation. ;D

It creates an HTML file of all the favorites so you can save it to a disk or USB drive. Carry it to the new computer or send it by email. Simple and easy. :D
Works on Windows XP, not sure about Vista.

I posted a while back about http://delicious.com. You can import all your bookmarks and add toolbars to your browsers. You can also make them private which helps if you have network items you manage but don't want to give out the ip. You can check mine out at the following link.

Also Internet explorer and firefox have built in import and export tools that will export to html under file import/export. Or if you are using IE they are just stored in a folder in your user profile C:\documents and settings\%username%\favorites or Vista they are in C:\users\%username%\Favorites just copy and paste the folder to you usb flash drive.

I switched to firefox exclusively between computers to use Foxmarks which will sync between computers/platforms.
