I am changing from W2k to XP Pro and have XP installed on a new drive (the
old W2k HD had too much junk to upgrade over) Can someone tell me where the
IE6 Autocomplete list data is held? I'd like to copy it across to the new
XP HD. I'm not looking for the password list but the list of autocomplete
data.

Thanks

It's encrypted in an inaccessible part of the registry.
You need to use an API to see it.

PSPV from NirSoft can do that for you (e.g. export it to a text file.)
I'm not sure but I think you may even be able to import it from the same file.
Both types of AutoComplete data would be preserved.



Good luck

Interesting site: It offers "free" music for $1/month. I didn't know
$1/month was "free" although I did know money wasn't worth much anymore.
