New Year MSIE 7 Conundrum

Hello and Happy new year!
I have my two home computers networked, one wirelessly (WinXPHome) and one
with cable (WinXPPro). Is there a way of synchronizing the MyFavorites from
MSIE on both computers?
I just downloaded a very cool program from Microsoft named SyncToy, and I
would like to use it for this purpose. However, I don't know what files to
sync in order to have MSIE MyFavorites synced on both computers.
Thanx in advance,
Albert C

By default, Favorites are stored in this folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Favorites

You olso could give Maxthon 2 beta a try. You can make a personal account
whenever you start up your browser all you favorite's get synced between
every computer. No need for synctoy then.

I use it and it's great ! :)
