Is there a way to convert IE favourites to Firefox's bookmark.htm format?

After switching from Windows to Linux, I am left with a favourite directory containing subfolders and
.url
files, each file containing a few lines of text that look like this:
[DEFAULT]
BASEURL=http://www.example.com/faq.html
[InternetShortcut]
URL=http://www.example.com/faq.html
Modified=70E5E788C3B9C9010A
Since I do not have internet explorer installed on my Linux system, it is not possible for me to import the bookmarks directly to my current Firefox browser.
I was wondering if there is a quick way to extract the URL from all the .url
files, together with the filenames to generate a .htm
file which I can import to any modern browser.
