Transferring IE information from XP to Vista

[Mark Scott]

How do I back up my list of search providers and my RSS feeds? I am looking
to export them and re-import to a fresh Vista install

RSS feed subscription can be backed up using Internet Explorer's Import/Export Wizard.
Search providers list has to be backed up from the registry.
