'Favourites' reversed on export/import.

Moved my 'Favourites' from IE8 on one computer to IE8 on a new computer and they all transferred OK but in reverse order,'z' at the top now! Is there a way to correct this please? (I used the export/import function of each browser).

Well that worked well, thanks GG.

Next question: I have the choice of IE8 in either 32 or 64 bit mode, OS is Windows 7, 8gbs of RAM, what are the advantages/disadvantages of these modes please?

(I have done a forum search but I'm only looking for specific advantages or disadvantages of IE8 in 32 or 64 bit mode, Thanks).

Since you have a 64 bit OS you may as well run IE in 64 bit mode, but I doubt you'll notice very much difference, I have a 64 bit version of FireFox called 'pale moon' which I tried out but I don't notice much difference in speed and when you think about it it still takes the same time to carry out the liveware inputs, the upload/download speeds are the same, so all we are really going to get is a slightly faster page rendition.

No doubt someone else will come along with a different view in a minute.

Same

Same as GG. I have other things to do, rather than playing spot the difference. Couldn't see a difference, but didn't look too hard.
