Hi Chris,

I don't know if this will help. I copied My Favorites from my 98 
machine into XP without any problems and I am assuming that you can 
do the same copying from XP to vista.

1. Go into your application data in documents and settings on the XP machine.

2. open up My Favorites.

3,. Do select all (CTRL+A)

4. Copy the selected favorites (CTRL+C)

5. Paste the copied favorites (CTRL+V) into a flash disc or some 
external storage device.

6. Connect whatever device you used into the Vista machine.

7. Select all and copy the My Favorites from your storage device.

8. Open up your My Favorites folder on the Vista machine and paste 
the selected items there.

You should have only one My Favorites folder on your Vista machine.

I don't have Vista, but I would think that this would work. Remember, 
don't copy the folder name from your XP machine, instead copy the 
favorites short-cuts.

HTH,

Lennie
