Can somebody explain why they have copy-protection flagged on Internet Channel save file? I'd like to backup my bookmarks -_-

And no, this ISN'T the channel itself, it's the save file.

Well, it's not just favorites.  It's all cookie data as well...  Do you really want the possibility of someone copying your cookie data?
Looking for any old friends from Nsider.  If you remember me, let me know!

Saying that the file is accessible only by me, yes.

Maybe your file is only accessible to you, but Nintendo doesn't know that.  Letting people copy a file that saves browser cookie data onto a transferable media would be a major security risk, and that's probably why you're not allowed to...

Probably cause the channel costs money now. Even though it's not the actual channel...

what would you copy it to?
An SD card and then from the card backed up on the computer... in case the file somehow accidentally gets deleted from the Wii itself for whatever reason ::)

Yes. I successfully copied Super Paper Mario, Trauma Center: SO, Paper Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Twilight Princess, Wii Sports, Wii Play, Sonic Secret Rings, and WarioWare to the SD card at the same time. I got the same error for Check Mii Out, Everybody Votes, and Pokemon Battle Revolution.

...and I made sure that the SD card had over 1GB of space free before copying it all.

You don't get it.
Nintendo makes it so that you are unable to copy certain files. This is true for both Gamecube and Wii.
For example, they don't allow you to copy Pokemon Box for Gamecube because it obviously would duplicate every single Pokemon you own. For the same reason, you aren't able to duplicate Chao save data. An example for Wii is that you can't duplicate your Check Mii Out data because it would double your submissions or something of the sort.
