Anyone know where they are stored at?

I've often wondered this myself...perhaps at the end of the rainbow.

X:\\Documents and Settings\\<username>\\Application Data\\Mozilla\\Firefox\\Profiles\\<XXXXXXXX>\\bookmarks.html

You can also export them to a file in the bookmark manager. This is what i do.

I use the \"Bookmark backup\" extension. And it saves bookmarks on-exit. Thus I have many bookmarks files extending back, weekly, for about a year.

Losing them would be disastrous.

Thanks Krom but I expected to have a Favorites folder with bookmark files (.lnk). I also expected to find a Links folder ... the one that corresponds to the IE Links Bar. That is ultimately what I am trying to do ...

I am trying to migrate from IE to Firefox permanently and in doing so I want to be able to have the same Links bar with the same URLs assigned to the buttons. I want to do this without having to create and rename every single danged link.

Maybe someone knows how to do that?

Here is my IE Links Bar :

In firefox, the links bar is called the bookmarks toolbar folder. Just import your favorites into FF. It should do it all.

Bookmarks - Manage Bookmarks - Import - Internet Explorer.

Sorry, I had assumed importing Internet Explorer favorites was a no brainer in Firefox, I stand corrected.

You think you're so smart, what with your big avatar

Thanks Merlin, that did it.

FYI, Firefox gives you this prompt when you first actually launch it. You have the choice to import from IE, or from a file.

i love that the bookmarks are all in one html file.
put a shortcut somewhere to that file and you will be able to easily search through your bookmarks from within firefox. it also makes it easy to document your bookmarks onto a webpage, just cut-paste the html - you'll have your folder's indentationed and everything.
