During synchronization, the list of favorite links in the Mobile Favorites folder on your desktop
computer is synchronized with Pocket Internet Explorer on your Pocket PC. Both computers are

link as a mobile favorite, only the link will be downloaded to your Pocket PC, and you will need
to connect to your ISP or network to view the content. For more information on synchronization,
see ActiveSync Help on the desktop computer.
Mobile Favorites
If you are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 on your desktop computer, you can download

computer.
