Importing Favorites

Is there a way to import my favorites from Internet Explorer to FireFox? I am switching to FF and I have a lot of favorites in IE that I want to keep...I didn't want to have put them in Mozilla one by one so if anyone can help it would be great!

Also, I was wondering what the upside to running FF over IE is? I am switching because it was suggested in the Protect yourself from Malware sticky, and I DEFINATELY want to protect myself from malware lol. I was just curious how it protects you.

Thanks,
April

 

mporting Bookmarks from Internet Explorer:

1. Open Internet Explorer.
2. Choose File->Import and Export...
3. A wizard pops up. Press next->Export Favorites->next->next.
4. Choose "export to a File or Address"->Press Browse and choose "Desktop"->Save->Next->Finish->Ok.
5. Open Firefox.
6. Choose Bookmarks->Manage Bookmarks...->File->Import->find bookmark.html
7. Ready!

 

im sure everyone has their opinions but i tinnk FF is much faster and safer...thats just me though

 

Thank you for the info. Yeah...I've just started FF but I really like it thus far.

 

In the top menu bar, click where it says 'File'. In that menu that drops down, go down 2/3 of the way and click on 'Import'. This will open a window allowing you to import all your IE favorites into the Firefox Bookmarks folder.

Yes in that case ill agree with you

But, does the "ctrl c = ctrl v" bugs in FF fix already?
