I only ask because after a crash I seemed to lose them all and could
only import the old IE ones.


They are stored in an html file in your profile folder. Look for
Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxxxx.default and your bookmarks.html file
should be in there. The location of the profiles folder differs from OS
to OS but, in XP it is in [disk]:\Documents and Settings\[user
name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default

"Documents and Settings" and then your username on the PC then into the
following folders "Mozilla" "Firefox" "Profiles".


Ooops I missed out one. After your username there is another folder called
"Application Data". I was prompted to check again by the post by MCC, who
is not running XP, I think:-)
