Yes, bookmarks in Netscape and favorites in IE and (::spits on floor::) the
AOL own-brand browser. Resetting them is actually quite easy -- all you have
to do is change the www.egroups.com part of it to groups.yahoo.com --

For instance:

http://www.egroups.com/group/HPforGrownups

would change to

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownups

and

http://www.egroups/group/HPforGrownups/files/+merger.txt

to

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownups/files/+merger.txt

etc ad infinitum ad nauseum.

===========

Doing it "manually" is actually easier than deleting all your old
bookmarks/favorites and starting again from scratch.

Happy to help (and so's my Rock)!
