Backing up Internet Explorer logins

[Cyberzen]

Hi all, I intend to reformat my HD and was just wondering what files do I have to backup if I intend to retain all the login information for the sites I login to with my browser, I.E all the logins to sponser programs and sites that require authentication.<br /><br />Is this info stored in cookies? The last time I tried formatting I had exported all my cookies to a txt file and had imported it after the format but I lost all my logins. Any help would be much appreciated.<br /><br />Oh yea, I use windows 2000 Professional.

I believe this info is stored in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main<br /><br />do this<br />start&gt;run regedit<br /><br />go to that dir, right click it and click export.. then when you need to put that info back in just import the .reg file you made <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> <br /><br />im not sure completely - but im 95% sure this will work

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\IntelliForms\SPW<br /><br />I think thats the path in the registry!
