2. I did recover them after losing Firefox and re-loading the program
Don't know how, they just were there.

4. Same here. I thought they were gone forever after crashing from
convulsive response to Adobe, but suddenly after another crash they were back.

3. Not a user, but a firefox help site says to do this
you should be abloe to recover your bookmarks by locating your previous user folder and importing the file "bookmarks.html".

don't know if it will work.

5. Try a simple search for bookmarks.html
and in the future, try this extension. It's a livesaver..

8. Give Opera a try
It's a very good browser, It's more stable and faster than Firefox.
