I have to replace a user's computer. He is currently running W2K. All his passwords are saved in IE. Does anyone know where those passwords are cached so I can port them over to the new computer? Is it a cookie? Please help!

The IE Passwords are saved in Microsoft Protected Storage.
I don't know if there is a simple way to get to it but there are several password recovery tools on the web which will allow you to get to them.

This is one such site.
