Backing up files using webspace

I read with interest the the last post that the person backed up their IE6 favourites using their webspace.

If anyone could enlighten me on how to do this I would be grateful.I thought I would start a new thread on this as it is seperate from the question they asked

Copy the folder c:\documents and settings\USERNAME\Favourites to your webspace. Obviously replace USERNAME

Re: Backing up files using webspace

Another method is to open Internet Explorer and go to File > Import and Export...

In the new window that opens click Next >, select Export Favorites and click Next >.

Select which favourites you want to export, most will want to select all so click Favorites and click Next >.

Ensure Export to a File or Address is selected and choose a location. Click Next > and then Finish.

All your favourites will then be exported to a file called bookmark.htm Upload this file to your webspace and then you have access to your favourites from anywhere

Browse to your FireFox profile folder as per FireFox instructions. Inside there should be a file called bookmarks.html
