SR2Fav - Utility to add SharpReader locked items to your IE Favorites

Although SharpReader doesn't have a lot of fancy bells and whistles, I keep coming back to it after trying the “latest and greatest“ aggregators.

Like most people, I don't have time to read everything that I subscribe to, so I tend to read the headinlines and only drill into the entries that sound interesting.  I may want to refer back to some entries later, so I lock those and delete the rest.  Last night I was thinking it would be nice if I could add all of my locked items to my favorites list in IE.  Well, that sounded like fun, so I have put together this little utility that reads my SharpReader cache, creates a SharpReader folder in my IE favorites list, creates subfolders for each of my subscriptions, and then creates a favorite for each locked item. 

I've provided a link to it here, so feel free to give it a test drive if you would like.

If you have any questions I'll be glad to answer them if I can. 

Again, I wrote this for myself, so the assumptions I was working under are:
Windows XP w/IE 6
SharpReader v0.9.4.1

There are no guarantees that it will work with your configuration, but I'll be glad to work with you in an attempt to resolve any issues.
