In IE, if you click on File|Import and Export|Export|Favorites, it will create an html document at a location you can specify anywhere on your hard drive. When you go to that html file and open it, it should open in your default browser with links that work.

Other browsers should allow for something similar?

You can edit the html file, and then use IE's Import|Favorites, browse to the location to tell it what to import, and all the bookmarks will be inserted back into the browser. (But you likely will get duplicates.)

I just put a link to "bookmarks" in my "Favorites" in IE, and when I'm really stumped for where I put the thing I'm looking for I just use that link to go to the exported listing (which is much easier to read and is searchable) and click the link there.
