I just had XP sp2 reinstalled on my computer. I copied all my
favorites to a floppy. I tried to reinstall them but they don't seem
to go into IE 6.
How can I get them back into the explorer under the favorites heading?
Thank you

Copy the favorites from your floppy into C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Favorites or
C:\Documents and Settings\*User Name*\Favorites
Assuming C:\ is your root drive

next time, don't copy them - in IE export them. then just reverse the
process to get them back.

Copy all the files in the floppy to this folder "C:\Documents and
Settings\USER\Favourites\"
Where USER is the name of your account.
