I had to install a new hard drive, but I was able to save the contents of the
old drive. I have installed IE6 on the new hard drive, and I need to restore
the setttings from the old hard drive for my links, favorites, etc. What
files do I need to copy from the old installation to the new one? I just
copied the contents from the old drive at the root level. Thanks for your
help.

You need to copy the contents of the old Favorites folder to the new
Favorites folder. Where these are depends on your Windows version.

Thank you, sir! That was just the ticket; I am almost fully recovered. I am
working on an Outlook 2000 solution on another newsgroup. What a great bunch
of people.
