Ärende: I've Been AOL'd Part 3
==============================
Howdy!

While playing with Windows Explorer, I just found that the AOL software
has Imported ALL of my Netscape Bookmarks in to 359 files 26,779 bytes,
in 62 directories in the C:\WINDOWS\Favorites directory.

359 files TIMES 4096 bytes per cluster each EQUALS 1,470,464 bytes USED
to store 26,799 bytes of data. UGH!

Maybe I should have figured in the additional sub-directories, so
359 + 62 = 421     421 * 4096 = 1,724,416 bytes. DOUBLE UGH!!

And folks this space is all taken up just by One-Liner URLs!

At least Netscape keeps me informed of the Dates I Added the URL in the
file AND when I Last Visted that site, in its' SINGLE Bookmark file.
                                               ^^^^^^

I looked through my files in DOS and found my BOOKMARK.HTM file in
Netscape 4.75 is 50,344 bytes but that includes the Channels that
Netscape adds to the top of the bookmark file it makes.
Those Channel entries use 11,174 bytes up.

So 50,344 - 11,174 = 39,170 bytes, while the number of bytes used by
Netscapes bookmark file seems a bit larger than the 26,779 bytes which
is the total amount the files in the WINDOWS\Favorites directory make
up, it still is a lot less than the 1,724,416 bytes the whole Favorites
directory takes up.

And as I said above NS keeps track of the date I last accessed the URL.

I guess you know whata I'ma gonna do next, don't ya?

Yep!, First, I'ma gonna look carefully through that directory and its
subs to see if there is anything I shouldn't delete, and then delete all
the junk in it.

I'll wait to see if there are any replies to this Part 3 message
before doing IT.

Are there any Cavets I should know about?

Thanks for reading and helping me out.
