its done with ole. there is interface called IShellUIHelper that has a
method (cant remember the name) that imports and exports favorites.
The user must have IE 4.0 or higher installed.
MSDN has a sample program I took some code from called FavRead.  If you
search msdn for that you should find the sample code.
