Unhappy Transferring bookmarks from... *ahem* AOL 9.0 to IE

Right i want to transfer my bookmarks from AOL to IE, but when i save them from AOL it saves it as a .pfc file and IE needs it to be .html . Ive also tried changing the extension to .html before saving and it still wont let me do it, cos IE says it an invalid file.

I've read good things about this software, but never used it myself:

Re: Transferring bookmarks from... *ahem* AOL 9.0 to IE

I use something called BookmarkBridge for merging IE and FF bookmarks - don't know if it works for AOL though.

I've just tried this and it was simple. Had to specify Firefox, as it didn't automatically recognise the browser, but all you had to do was tell it which folder the bookmarks were in. Plus it's free
