Moving IE passwords??????????

Moving IE passwords??????????
I just got a new computer, and want to move my old IE passwords, but I
don't know what the file name is, nor where it is located. For most
sites this isn't a problem, but some sites, it was the only place where
I had the password stored.

In advance All help is greatly appreciated!!

Passwords must be manually re-entered since one
cannot transfer passwords in Windows XP.

You can transfer the accounts and settings using FAST, but for security
reasons the passwords will not be transferred. You must manually enter the
passwords.

Protected Storage PassView from http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/pspv.html will
extract passwords and allow you to save as a text file or print.

Hope this helps,
