Answer»

Hi,

On the Internet properties, in the privacy tab under the Site button, there is a list of cookies that I blocked, is there anyway I can export this list to another PC?

I USE WinXP pro and IE 6

Assuming both PCs are running Windows XP (Home or Pro), you should be ABLE to connect both PCs with a direct cable connection or network.

Once the computers are connected, On the computer you want to transfer files and settings from, click Start/All Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Files and Settings Transfer Wizard.

Follow the wizard to transfer your Internet Explorer settings to the other PC.

Connecting Your Computers
For the best experience using the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard, you will want to connect your two computers together. You can connect your computers either by using a null modem serial cable or by using Home networking.

Connecting With A Serial Cable
The easiest way to connect your computers is to use the null modem serial cable. To use the null modem serial cable:

Both computers MUST have an available serial port (also called a COM port).
You must have a null modem serial cable (also called a LapLink serial cable or a serial file transfer cable).
The serial cable must be long enough to connect the computers together.

Connecting With Home Networking
The best way to connect your computers together is to use Home networking. Although the setup is more complex, your files and settings will transfer faster. If you are planning to keep both your old computer and your new computer, you might want to consider creating a Home network.

To use Home networking:

Both computers must have a network interface card or a USB network interface installed. The jack looks like a slightly larger telephone jack.
You must have network cable, and in most cases a hub.
The network cable must be long enough to connect the computers together.
Note: A wireless network will not need network cable or a hub.

Run the Network Setup Wizard to set up your Home network.


Hope this was of some help.Saviour, let's assume he does not have the computers networked and does not intend to network them.  In that case, if he has floppy drives in both computers or he has a USB flash drive, he could save the file CREATED by the wizard to the floppy or flash drive.  Now, let's also assume he only wants to transfer the security settings in IE.  Could he import only the IE security settings?  Under Tools, Options, Privacy in IE, I see a button for Import.  I'm guessing he can use Import to import only the IE privacy settings from the file created by the wizard.  Can you confirm that?

Edit: Well, I think I found the answer.  >Using the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard in Windows XP< explains how to SELECTIVELY tranfers settings.soybean,

I love it when people find their own answers...saves me the time of responding.
