IE, Safari, and Chrome all have similar methods. If you need help, let me know what browser you're using and I'll try to track down the directions.
Now THIS is useful information. I recently spent an afternoon clicking on, then copying and pasting the URL for all my favourites on my work computer since I won't have access to it anymore. NEXT time, I'll follow your instructions.
I bought an external hard drive that runs as a back up just so I don't lose my information. It's also very easy to grab in case of emergency.
