Vista & Firefox

08-16-2008

When I click the Vista start button and choose Favorites so I can log onto
the web Vista is giving me a list of my IE7 bookmarks/favorites that I
haven't used in months as I have been primarily using Firefox lately. Is
there a way to get this list to show the more current Firefox list?

(This will also be posted to the Firefox group as it is apropos there also).

Thanks in advance, Bob

ok one way is this

in firefox go to manage bookmarks and export your bookmarks to a HTNL file save it somewhere easy to find

open IE and go to file import and import from "file or address. this should add your recent firefox bookmaks to your vista favourites

yo may want to edit the IE favourites to remove any un-needed old entries
