Cinna,

This is how you do it:

Open up FireFox / Bookmarks / Manage Bookmarks. Within the MB window click File/Export and choose a place to save the file to [Desktop or My documents].

After you have exported your Firefox favorites as an html file, you can import that file into IE. Once in IE, the favorites will also be available in Avant.

To import the favorites file to IE:

Open Internet Explorer, click on the File menu and select Import & Export.

An import/export wizard will start. Click on Next / Import Favorites and then Next.
Use the browse button under "Import from a File or Address", and locate the bookmark.html file you previously saved on your Desktop or My Documents.

Regardless which way you are importing the remaining screens are the same. It will now ask you which "Destination Folder" you would like to save the imported bookmarks into. It is recommended you simply click Next.

Click Finish on the following screens and you are done.

These IE favorites will now be available from Avant.

For future use to Import/Export or to save favorites and anything else etc:

The easiest way to transfer your favorites etc. to a file is to use XP 'Backup' available in accessories in XP Pro. If you have XP Home addition you won't have this feature but it is on the XP Home CD ....hidden.

[Avant has no Import/Export utility so you cannot export favorites into Avast directly into a favorites file useing backup].

Here is how to access it and install it to your accessories menu:

1.Insert your Windows XP CD into the drive and, if necessary, double-click the CD icon in My Computer to run the CD.
2.On the Welcome to Microsoft Windows XP screen, click Perform Additional Tasks.
3.Click Browse this CD.
4.In Windows Explorer, double-click the ValueAdd folder, then Msft, and then Ntbackup.
5.Double-click Ntbackup.msi to install the Backup utility to accessories folder.
6.Remove XP CD and Re-start your PC.

If you wish to export any files or setting to disk useing backup, make sure you export to desktop or my documents first and from there you can copy the file[s] to disk. Exporting directly to disk useing backup wizard is only possible if you have XP Pro.

Don't click on C drive by itself when using this utility and try to backup your whole drive!

Hope this is of some use.
