    Typically, favorites are stored in a folder on your local hard drive. IF you no longer have access to the old hard drive, you will have to rebuild your favorites from scratch.

    AOL is not a friendly email environment. Although they provide tools to import contacts and email and favorites(?) into AOL, they do not offer any way to get them out again. I bet you're realizing this already.

    So, first, reevaluate your faithfulness to AOL. The internet has grown more and more open and interchangeable, AOL has not. That alone would send me packing at this point.

    Next, you should consider spending $25 on ePreserver... it's worth every penny, and probably a must if you're going to keep using AOL.
