In IE, (versions 8 and 9), click the star Favorites option, find where it says, "Add to Favorites" and pull down that options list, select "Import/Export" then follow the options.

Just asking: didn't you include your favorites in your routine backup? Or didn't you mind losing them?

Maybe then it's time to start thinking about what more of your valuable data you don't backup.
