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.
