  Version: Bookmark Converter 2.9

  "It rocks!"

  by Peter57893 on October 9, 2006

  Pros: I just downloaded and tried Bookmark Converter 3.2 Bata 2.----- It rocks.-----

  Go the developers web site and get the latest version.-----

  I have a bunch of old bookmarks in dozens of directories from Netscape Navigator 4.78. A while back I installed Mozilla and the bookmarks never made to move over. With This version of Bookmark Converter 3.2 I just moved the bookmarks to Internet Explorer 6.0.2800 on Windows 2000, Mozilla 1.7.13, FireFox 1.5.0.7, and Opera 9.02.-----

  I checked out Bookmark Converter on Windows XP and it work fine on that OS as well.-----

  The trick with the conversion is to find the location of your bookmark files. Basically I took the old bookmark file and converted the bookmarks into Windows favorites. Then I converted the favorites into bookmark files in the newer browses. As the location of the bookmark files will vary from operating system to operating system and from one version of a browser to another it is best to just search the whole drive for the file.-----

  Under Netscape the file name is either bookmarks.htm for Netscape 1-4 or bookmarks.html for later versions of Netscape.-----

  For Mozilla its bookmarks.html-----

  For FireFox its bookmarks.html-----

  For Opera its Opera6.adr-----

  Note that for some browsers there may be more than one bookmark file and the files may be in different locations.----

  As an aside the file finder in Windows XP is junk and is just about useless. You can download Babylon File manager from Download.com. Do a search for Babylon on Download.com. Once the program is open go to services, search.

  Cons: None

  "Crashes Every time."

  on August 9, 2003

  Summary: The 3.0 verion and the 3.1 versions bot crash on XP. I can't use it to transfer from favorites to Mozilla.
  It's odd that this level of bug can survive through ANY kind of update.

  "Works as promised!"

  by TechFarmer on September 18, 2002
