Help!

I've lost all the bookmarks on Firefox. Is there an easy way to retrieve them?
I've tried system restore and I have login details where used but an empty bookmark folder.

Many thanks

by any chance have you recently installed a toolbar to it? the ebay one has been making it do this.
Only solution is to roll back on system restore and thats dependant on your OS & set up if it will restore the bookmarks.

Firefox seems to be very prone to losing the Bmarks (and slowing down) when the list gats a bit long. Dunno where it lives on a PC since I run Macs, but it'd be worth finding it and copying it so that you have a back up.

Take a look in;
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\NUMBER.default

Username and number will be different for each person.
There is a lso a folder called bookmarkbackups which looks like it would be helpful :)
