Default need to retrieve login info

Hi,

I hope that this will be simple. My wife got a new computer and we didn't
migrate anything from her old one to the new one. She's all set up with all
of our financial records, and most of our online bill paying except for one
retail store online. I need to know how to go into the hard drive of her old
computer (which our 7 year old son is using now under a different login) and
get her login info (username & password) for that store so that we can pay
that bill online. Her old computer is running Windows XP Professional and
the new one is running Windows XP Home. If anyone can help me find out how
to retrieve the login info from the Target site on her old machine and also
tell me how to get it into her new machine, I'll appreciate it a lot. Thanks
in advance for any and all help.

You need to copy the contents of the History and Cookies folders to
your XP machine. Whether this will work or not debatable. You could
use the Files and Settings Transfer wizard to copy the information
access under her old login.
