Where can I find the list of short cuts of favourites from IE5 on my PC?  
I want to transfer my IE5 favourites list from one computer to another, a file is easier than a pen and paper. Nowhere I look can tell me how to do so.

In IE5 click on FILE then IMPORT AND EXPORT. This starts up the Wizard that will export your favorites.

Hope that helps.

Bring up Windows Explorer (windows key + e) and look under windows/favorites. They’re all in a folder. I just right click on the favorites folder and send it to a floppy (A).
