Extension request

I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.7 on a Windows XP SP2 computer, DSL connection.

On my Windows XP Start Menu, I have 'Favorites' listed. However, these
are the favorites I choose when using Internet Explorer, a browser I hardly
ever use anymore.

Is there an extension that will replace these with the Firefox
bookmarks? I'm constantly adding and replacing Firefox bookmarks, and it
would be nice to access them from the Start Menu.

Firefox bookmarks are stored in a file called bookmarks.html.

For IEs Favourites, each bookmark/favourite is an individual file and
stored in the favourite directory of windows.

I only know of one way, but it has its downfall. Open IE, click on
File, Import and import FF bookmarks into IE. The downfall to this is
you need to constantly update IEs favourites.

Maybe someone knows of a better way.

That's what I was about to suggest. If your bookmarks rarely change, it
would serve.

Try Favorites Converter (export) https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/336/
- that's what I use and it works fine for me.
