    You have not included which browser you want to move the bookmarks to. Your new browser may provide a import/convert features for AOL bookmarks. A free service, Link-A-Go-Go provides a converting service if required. You will see 2x drop down menu's to allow choices FROM (input) browser and TO (output) browser. A 3rd field allows you to provide where you have your AOL export file. Directions below the above screen will tell you where your AOL bookmarks are and how to export them.

    Thanks Dennis, I'll certainly give Links a go go a try. Sounds like what I've been searching for.

    Yes, LinkaGoGo works to convert AOL Favorites to new browser Firefox. Seems a little confusing and maybe I made it more difficult than necessary because I'm new to Firefox, but I think they are where I need them now. Thanks.
