Checked google and found BookmarkBridge.
Its a program that is supposedly able to sync bookmarks between different 
systems

/From the README file :

**                          BookmarkBridge 0.72                            **
**                   Copyright 2003-2004 by Ken Schenke                    **
**                                                                         **
**                  http://bookmarkbridge.sourceforge.net                  **

Thank you for your interest in BookmarkBridge!

BookmarkBridge is a small, easy to use, multi-platform, GUI-based utility that
allows the user to share bookmarks between all their browsers. The user runs 
it periodically to synchronize between the browsers.
