Harold, there is a utility for doing just that and it is free.  I
use it.  It is called "syncURLs" and you can download it here.

Subject: PCWorks: Firefox, IE, bookmarks, & favorites


> Hello again,
>
> Using Firefox, I installed what Favorites I had in IE so now
they are all

Bookmarks Toolbar
> (but that I configured optionally). All this I now have in FF.
This must

feature,

list. I
> emphasize, "as a list."
>
> Now, while using FF, changes are made in this Bookmarks list
but these
> changes do not show up in IE (no reason they should). When I
try to update
> the IE favorites by exporting from FF to IE, all I get in IE is
an .htm file
> leading to a FF webpage with all the Bookmark links on it.
>
>  I even removed all the Favorites from IE (backing them up in a
temporary
> folder on the desktop), so now all I have in that Favorites
list is my Links
> folder (now empty), and that bookmarks file (the .htm link)
that leads back
> to a bookmarks page in FF.

> The question is --- How can I export the bookmarks from FF to
IE so that

Favorites I

leading back

first

Favorites as
> an updated list (and not as a link)?

the Archives,
