    The bookmarks will be a software thing on your PC so swapping providers (which is just your gateway to connect to the interweb) would make no difference

    Others would happily correct me if I am wrong

    ok found out how to.Go to https://www.uk.bookmarks.yahoo.com and it lets you export from their.
    Also found a site called www.linkagogo.com which lets you use bookmarks from any computer by linking them to internet.

    agreed - if you are changing PCs, then the tools mentioned above would be useful, but changing ISPs has no effect on your bookmarks
