Unable to import Favorites from IE

I want to switch my default browser from IE to Firefox and I have a lot of important bookmarks that I want to bring over in the organized folder structure I've created. I've tried five times to import my favorites from IE to Firefox and I get an error message that says "A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete." It won't let me stop the script OR continue and just keeps reappearing without ever importing the bookmarks until I finally have to shut down the browser. What should I do?

Try doing it this way.

In IE:
File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file

then in Firefox:
Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks -> Import & Backup - Import HTML... = From HTML file

Thanks! Turns out that, despite the error messages, my favorites had already been imported into Firefox, so I'm all set now.
