Favorites (sic)

[Moi]

Hello

If this is not the right place to ask, please politely tell me where!

Internet Explorer 7. Is there a facility to opt for a different location for
the favorites file? Can't find it in the 'options' or elsewhere. I'd like
to put it in My Documents for ease of scheduled backup. Currently it's in
\Documents and Settings \ [name] \

IE Tools | Internet Options | General | Browsing history | Settings | Move
folder (button).

TIP: Create the new folder first, then Move the files.

TIP: IE doesn't always like it when you do this. YMMV.
