I am going to move my data information to a new computer. It's Windows 7 with Firefox as my browser. I wish to move all including my desktop screen and Firefox/Google/Yahoo/Stumble toolbars bookmarks, stumbled pages etc. with all icons there too. Is this possible?

I thought I could download to a USB stick (4GB), but it did not take all of the above for reasons I'm not sure of.

One option to transfer data is using the Windows Easy Transferhttp://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/products/features/windows-easy-transferHere is a tutorial on HowToGeek ~ although it's for XP to Win 7 it should be pretty much the same in your casehttp://www.howtogeek.com/howto/3179/migrate-xp-to-windows-7-with-easy-transfer-and-a-usb-drive/If you want to transfer your Firefox installation with all it's data you should look into MozBackup.[Broken Link Removed]

Hi Steven,If the other computer is on your local network, you'd probably be best setting up a temporary share and sending them directly to the other computer via your router.Could you please post the error message you got when you attempted to transfer via USB?
