Can favorites be preserved if I reinstall IE&??

I would like to uninstall and reinstall my IE& on my XP-SP2 desktop. I would
like to find a clean easy way to accomplish this without destroying my
between these two processes. Is this a possibility to be accomplished?
Thanks in advance . . . Tom J.

Use
IE-File-Export and create a single HTML file for later use with
IE-File-Import.

What do you hope to achieve by "uninstall and reinstall" of IE6?
It is far from a magic bullet.

Re: Can favorites be preserved if I reinstall IE&??

Done properly, your Favorites should be preserved when uninstalling IE7 and
reinstalling it.

1. Uninstall IE7 (which automatically returns you to IE6) per
http://www.ie-vista.com/kbase2.html

2a. Uninstall all toolbars and third-party Windows Themes (including Window
Blinds).

2b. Disable all Norton Add-ons, if applicable.

3. Reinstall IE7 exactly per
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install, and using
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/default.mspx as the installation
source, not Automatic/Windows Update.

4. IMMEDIATELY go to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and install any
critical updates offered. If a "Root Certificates" update is listed in the
Optional category, you might install it, too, to take full advantage of
IE7's additional security.
