Default Transferring to Laptop

Using IE6 on my PC - just acquired a laptop - can anyone tell me what file I
need from my PC to import my "favourites" across to the laptop and where on
the laptop it needs to go ? Similarly can I transfer (I assume) cookies so
that automatic logins are carried across ? I cannot see what version of IE
is on the laptop but presumably any will be comptible. Thnaks. Rock

Method 1 = copy c:\windows\favorites\*.* to a
disc and put it into the other PC.
Method 2 = connect both PCs via ethernet
cable, if both have ethernet jacks, and copy
directly.
Method 3 = export favorites to a single file, email
it to yourself from the source PC, receive the
email on the other PC and import the favorites.
