151207 2003-06-09 07:01:00 My friend lost her Favourites Folder when she reformatted her computer, I tried to send my folder to her as we have the same interests, when I was sending the file it turned into .ink extension and she couldn't open it
Is there any way of doing in

151208 2003-06-09 07:13:00 How did you try sending your Favorites folder? If you "exported" it from Internet Explorer it should give you the option of saving it to a file on your disk called "bookmark.htm". Save that to your desktop then send it as a file through Outlook Express (or whatever your email client is). When your friend receives it she will need to save it to her desktop then "import" it through her Internet Explorer. tommy (2826)
151209 2003-06-09 08:11:00 Assuming you received the file ok, then you will most likely find that you tried to send a folder or a shortcut to a file... This would explain the .lnk suffix.
The easiest way to send her back her favorites would be to just foward the email she sent you back to her assuming you still have it.. If you don't however, then, if you imported her favorites into your computer, you can just go File > Import and Export > Export Favorites > Favorites > navigate to the desktop and save there > ok...
Then just right-click on the new file on your desktop and click Send To > Mail Recipient...

While this will give her both her old favorites and some of your ones, it's better than nothing right? :D
