Importing favorites and other data from Internet Explorer AUTOMATICALLY

more options

I know how to import favorites and other data from Internet Explorer but it is a manual process. Is there any way to have this happen automatically on a regular basis, e.g. on the first of the month or whenever I bring up Firefox?

Also, I'm assuming when I import my favorites from IE it won't wipe out any of my OTHER bookmarks.

No, it wouldn't wipe any bookmarks, but you would end up with a lot of duplicates. You would be better off using a cross-browser bookmarks synchronization service like Xmarks or CometMarks.
