I'm running Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows 2000. I will be moving
the OS to Windows XP on a new computer. How do I transfer my "Links"
shortcuts which appear underneath the "Address" bar and provide
one-click access to commonly used URLs to the new system?

Hello, rbnn:

In Windows 2000, your favorites are stored in:

C:\WINDOWS\FAVORITES

Being c:\windows the installation directory of your system. The
favorite bookmarks are .url files, so you can simply copy them.

In Windows XP, favorites are stored in:

C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name]/Favorites

Being [your user name] your account name.

Said that, you just need to backup the favorites from Windows 2000 and
after you install Windows XP, then, restore them in the Windows XP
directoy.

Of course, these are the default instructions for a default system, so
if you have any problem or any additional question, please, don't
hesitate to request for a clarification. We are here to help you.

Regards.
