Default backing up passwords

Hi can anyone tell me if there is a way to save or back-up all the saved
interent passwords on my computer? and put them on CD
I have Win98 and i am about to get a new PC on XP. I really don't know if i
will be able to manage to remember all the passwords.

Thanks

Passwords are saved as cookies, or in the Windows registry. For security
reasons they are not easily transferable between computers.
