Which settings? A quick search on Google will provide you with different ways to export and import various things from IE.

Hello Lee,
the settings I am talking about are the setting changes you do in Tools > Internet Options

Thanks

Those are actually Control Panel settings stored in the registry, and you can find where the individual settings are in a search on Google. I don't know the exact registry keys, but am sure you can find them pretty easily if you search for them. After that write a reg file to add into the registry of whatever computer you want to transfer the settings to.

The File and Transfer Settings Wizard in Windows XP may be something you can consider.

Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools to find it.

Regards,
