I have been using firefox for a long time but some times, I need to use internet explorer for some purposes but always missed the my firefox bookmarks in firefox and after I started using firefox 3 it becomes more difficult to play with firefox bookmarks.

But Yesterday, I found a free utility :) called FavTool which can convert the firefox bookmarks ( used by firefox ) into Microsoft Internet Explorer and vice versa also.

    Wow, it’s been quite a while since I have seen this tool. I used to use it quite actively a few years back.

    However, now use Mozilla extension to fetch my IE favorites.
