How to Import Bookmarks into Firefox From Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer is still the industry standard for web browsers, but the popular browser by Microsoft has competition. Its No. 1 rival is Mozilla Firefox.

3. Select "Import..."

4. Choose the radio dial for "Microsoft Internet Explorer" and select "Next."
