How does Windows Favorites work?

When I first installed Parallels and imported a boot camp Windows 7 system, it seemed to pull all of my Internet Explorer Favorites over to a Safari bookmarks labeled "Windows Favorites". But I'm wondering how this works. Is this something that dynamically updates as you add more links to Internet Explorer? What if I create a new Windows 7 virtual... Will the links pull from Safari and update my Internet Explorer? Looking to see if there are ways to keep these two in sync, or even across multiple virtuals.

 

I use xmarks to keep my favorites synced between Safari & Chrome on my Mac and IE on my Win 7 VM. Alternatively, if you use Chrome for both Mac and Win, once you sign in, it'll sync everything - including bookmarks, browsing history, etc.
