About
Do you ever wish that your Internet Explorer favorites were the same as your Netscape bookmarks? I did. I usually run Netscape Navigator but occasionally use MS Internet Explorer but didn't have the bookmarks available that I was accustomed to using. Running this Applescript will replace your Internet Explorer "Favorites" file with your Netscape Navigator "Bookmarks" file on your hard drive. When started, it gives you a choice to backup your old favorites file or delete it. Backups are given a random number filename and stored in a newly created folder, "Backups of Favorites." The next time you start Internet Explorer, it will recognize this new Favorites file and convert it to its own format. All the Netscape bookmarks, including folders, remain intact. Explorer 4.0 adds its own formatting and icons automatically. Software and Hardware Requirements: Internet Explorer 3 (or above); Netscape Navigator 3 (or above); Applescript extension; System 7 (or higher); and any Mac that can run the above software.
