Favorites file transfer from Windows 98 drive

[Guest]

I am running on a new XP computer and have my old Windows 98 drive directly
attached as drive F. I have it attached this way because the old computer
died but the drive is ok. I've manually moved most of what I need. However,
I am trying to get my old Internet Explorer favorites onto the new system.
Where is the old Windows 98 file stored and how do I get it to run on XP?
Thank you

Yes, that solves my problem. I did an Explorer search for Favorites on the
old system and didn't get a match. It was late last night when I did that so
I don't know what I did wrong. Thank you. It might be helpful to others if
that support document could be retrieved using the keywords I used: import
favorites from one computer to another. I think I also searched using the
word move.

Thank you.

I found http://support.microsoft.com/kb/196482 with the keyword Favorites
and Search Product: Windows 98.

It was the first one listed here...
