Internet Explorer:
1. Get the Favorite directory from the Registry:
Software/microsoft/window/currencversion/Explorer/Shell folders

2. Create an .ini file with the extension .url
Example (Tek-Tips.url)

[InternetShortcut]
URL=http://www.tek-tips.com


Netscape:
1. Get the directory from the Netscape part in the registry (Haven't tried that yet).
2. Manipulate the Bookmarks file. (That's an HTML-file)

It went a little bit wrong... You wanted to Import then to your app first....

In IE you have to read the favorites directory and read every .url file.

Then you have to decode load then like an .ini file.
