Need help from computer savvy people....
I am leaving my job and have a million - favorite webpages bookmarked on my work computer...
Is there any way of transferring them, saving them, etc?

Email them to your personal address. It should be small enough.

You can buy one pretty much anywhere. (check Staples, Target, Walmart, or Office Max) it's awesome! you just plug it into the USB outlet on your pc and then you just drag and drop everything on your work PC onto the flash drive. It's awesome.

For IE 7
Go to Tools --> Toolbars
Make sure favorites is checked off
On your tool bar you will see a + with a star. Click that and go to import and export. Export your favorites to a location you know, like your desktop or something. Its a small file, you can email it to yourself or like another poster said put it on a flash drive.

If you have Internet Explorer, all of your favorites are stored in:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Favorites
Just copy the entire folder somewhere (USB memory stick, floppy drive, CD, online storage site)

Thank you - this was JUST the type of help I needed - thank you - this was done in 2 minutes as opposed to the hour I just put into saving each site individually!!!
