Another alternative is to install TinkerTool for OS X (you can get it free at http://www.bresink.de/osx/TinkerTool.html ), start TinkerTool, go to the Safari tab and check the "Enable Debug" and/or "Reimport Internet Explorer favorites" options. Safari should be closed before you enable these options.
Start Safari and you can see the Debug menu next to the Help menu. Click on the Debug menu and you can see the options to import bookmarks directly from Internet Explorer/Mozilla bookmarks or manual search for bookmarks that are already exported by other browsers in html format. Besides enabling the Debug Menu of Safari, TinkerTool have other features for other components of the operating system.
