How do I change the location of my IE favourites folder please? I want to move my favourites another place, either XP or 9x will do. (I dual boot and want to only have one set of favourites no matter which OS im in)

I realise that its not a setting that's normally available but mebee its in the registry or a setup file? Mebee there's another way via a script or something - does anyone know?

Thanks in advance for any help

*edit*
found it - for reference its at:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders - Favourites
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders - Favourites
change both.
