493580 2006-10-24 06:11:00 Hi Team

Was on firefox and doing some surfing, nothing unusual. I then closed it and reopened and all my saved favorites were gone. I thought a reboot would "bring them back" but this wasnt to be. After months of building up my favorite web links/pages , im really annoyed theyve just disappeared like this. Is it at all possible to get them back, is there a backup list of these links somewhere?

Please help!

c://documents and settings/YOUR USERNAME/application data/mozilla/firefox/what ever the next folder is called/

then youll see theres a folder called bookmark backsup, should be up to date to the previous day.
