Hi all.
Is it possible to save or export the (internet) History sites?

Hi
Very easy to do. Open IE go to File on the toolbar, then to Import and Export and follow the steps. Or if you want to copy it: Open Windows Explorer, go to Documents and Settings, then to the user you want, and you will see Favorites there. Either way simple task.

The above will export only the IE favorites and/or IE cookies but not history.
IE History is located in C:\Documents and setting\User name\local settings. To be able to see this folder you need to show hidden files. (Folder menu -> tools -> Folder Options -> View tab -> Show hidden files and folders). So you can copy this History and place it in the same folder on another computer - this history will be shown there

The copy to another media works O.K. but when I try to paste to the other machine it will not work. I wonder if the fault may may in some way be caused by Firefox on the recipient machine?
It shgouldn't as I am only working within Windows not the net.
