For syncing with IE, which is better, PlainOldFavorites or Xmarks?

I'm looking for a solution that will update my FF bookmarks with changes to my IE bookmarks, and vice versa. I rarely use IE, but some websites work with it and not FF. I don't want a solution that requires me to copy all my bookmarks to IE favorites, or vice versa. Seems like that way loses new bookmarks on either end, the one copied to. I just want a simple cross-platform sync.

PlainOld Favorites doesn't "synchronize", it uses IE Favorites from their default location in AppData and Firefox Bookmarks remain separate.

As of what i heard, PlainOldBookmarks is better, but i have never used such addons, hopefully it works well for you.
