For your favorites, in IE do File-Export. Copy the file to the new machine.
Open IE and do File-Import.

Hey, dp600, I agree with Gordon--do same ((File>export then Import on
new machine)) with OE just as he says do with Favorites. Remember, in doing
OE, select "comma-separated values" when prompted. Luck. s
