Microsoft Internet Explorer does not come with the options to backup its settings. This can be problematic for users who want to backup their Internet Explorer data for security reasons or before migrating to another computer.
Internet Explorer Backup is a data backup software that can backup various Internet Explorer related settings and options such as favorites, proxy settings, autocomplete passwords, cookies or dialup accounts.
It can furthermore be used to migrate the backed up data to another computer system. Even more interesting is the fact that the data can be restored even if Internet Explorer versions differ. It is not a problem to backup Internet Explorer 5 data and restore it on a computer with Internet Explorer 6.
A few options are provided by the backup software upon execution. Data can be backed up or restored. There are additional options to rollback and to create scheduled backups.
A few additional settings can be configured after selecting the initial course of action. Backups can be compressed, password protected, verified and limited in size.
Supported Internet Explorer versions are Internet Explorer 4. 5.0x, 5.5, 6.0 and 7.0. Internet Explorer 8 beta is currently not supported by the backup software.

Possibly useful but he should offer options to choose WHAT to backup. I have around 5000 favorites and I don’t want to back those up regularly since that is handled anyway by disk imaging.
Jojo you got a point there ;)
This post will not be complete without ‘Why are you still using IE?’ ;)
I’m not using IE RG, except for cases where a site won;t work correctly in FF (like CNBC where I can’t play their video’s).
For the record though, I do use the IE Favorites construct in FF with the FF plug-in Plain Old Favorites.
What is the IEAK for then?
