How do Synch your bookmarks?

For those that use IE & FF and on different machines, how do you synch your bookmarks. FF seems to handle it quite badly, creating duplicates and can't handle some chars like & etc. For me at least.

I don't - I wrote a simple PHP script that I use to store my bookmarks in a MySQL database, on an internet-accessible server and any machines I use regularly have this page set as their home page. This way I can use the same bookmarks anywhere in the world, on any browser on any OS (I do a lot of technical field work).

I seem to remember seeing a Firefox extension that does a similar thing (stores your bookmarks online), might be worth having a look around the extensions part of the FF webby.
