firefox bookmarks
I was having some issues with my computer and in the course of fixing it, I misplaced my bookmarks in firefox.

Does anyone know where I might be able to look for them? I know where to find IE favorites. I know where to find the bookmarks from an old Yahoo-based browser I had some time back, but I'm not sure where to look for the firefox bookmarks.

TIA

They are in your Documents and Settings\*user* directory, but can't remember exactly where. I do know that if you go to the FireFox home page and search for that, it will give you the specific directory with the file.

Not trying to be unhelpful, just gotta get back to something.....

That's good info, unfortunately I didn't have it before I lost my bookmarks

Oh well, I can recreate them from scratch, it's just a PITA.
