Simple question. Which subfolder will I find all of my
bookmarks in? I want to copy them to a floppy as a
backup...Any other wierd files I need to know about, or is
it just an easy copy & paste thing?

Locating Favorites:

C:\Windows\Favorites

When running Windows XP you can find your favorites under:
C:\Documents and Settings\[USER NAME]\Favorites
They will appear as shortcuts.

or.........for some other versions...

C:\Windows\Favorites

also.....

Start>Search>type in Favorites and see where the folder is located.

First, Quick Favorites Search, here:

and then Favorites Search, here:

I use both of them and they both work well. Favorites Search is an IE
toolbar which opens a frame in your browser, while QFS opens a separate
window, but offers more versatile search parameters and is faster. Both

And a third, but not free, solution is PowerMarks, here:
http://www.kaylon.com/power.html This is a BHO which is very much more
powerful and with considerable additional capabilities. Also

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps
