C:\Documents and Settings\your user id\Favorites

I don't know for sure about the contact list, but this is where your email folder is kept.

Outlook

C:\Documents and Settings\your user id\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook

Outlook Express

But Outlook Express doesn't store everything in one huge file like Outlook does. It stores it in a whole bunch of .asx (and other files).

To find your anything:

START > Search > (look in C: and amke sure it's set to look in hidden files)

Favorites = search for favorites

Outlook = search for *.pst

Outlook Express = search for Outlook Express (and you'll find a messy folder) which is useless

Windows Address book (used by Outlook Express) = seach for *.wab

Outlook and Outlook Express have the ability to import/export mail and address information, sometime automatically sometimes manually, depending on versions etc. But I could spend an hour explaining all the different ways.
