Hi everyone!,

I've installed Vista in my mac pro and would like to synchronice the bookmarks between mac and windows. Until now I used to use safari within mac but due to the bad behavior I'm experiencing running safari in windows I've decided to switch to firefox in both systems.
Surfing the net I found Foxmark for firefox, but after reading a few reviews seems like people does not like the last release.

What do you recommend?

Thanks in advance,

José

What sort of problems are people having with foxmarks, I can't live without it since I use it to sync 3 computers (two PC, one mac). The other good one is "read it later" for "temporary bookmarks" which I also sync across multiple machines.

Take a look at the reviews site https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... splay/2410

To yolk: I will deactivate encryption.

can't understand it eigther. but i have not yet installed the newest version. i'm not so happy about the update as well, because it simply is not necessary.
foxmark is great, that for sure, if you have several computer to sync
