It should just be an HTML file. What browser were you using bro?

All you need do is find that html file (I can point you to it if you tell me what browser you're running) then import it from your new install

on my new rig im running the latest IE ( 7 i think ) I'll have to plug in my old drive to import

no there wont be any issues. just copy over to your "my documents" folder
overwrite the existing file and your done.
