1318344 2012-12-14 09:05:00 How do I restore 'Old Firefox Data' to the current version of FF 17.0.1

I had a Funmoodsearch engine install itself (not too sure how it got in) and tried all sorts of things to get rid on it(even doing an unistall with Revo uninstaller of a program called Funmood) but was still in there.

In the end and in desperation I went to "Help" "Troubleshooting Information" and "Reset Firefox" and that got ride of EVERYTHING !! I mean everything. All bookmarks, saved passwords, cookies, everything.

Doing a system restore from a date about a week before this !@#$%Funmoodsearch thing turned up didn't do a lot of good. But somehow a Shortcut has been established to "Old Firefox Data" There are some 41 items listed in there all with names that give me a vague hint of what they might be. But they wont open.

Is it possible to restore selected files from the 'Old FF Data" and if so how would I go about it
