lost bookmarks on Firefox

[toby]

My power blinked this evening and caused my computer to shut down, and now all my bookmarks in Firefox are gone. Is there anywhere they might be hidden? I already looked at the bookmarks.html file in the default profile (only profile I have).

Try looking under Documents and Settings \ (name) \ Application Data \ Mozilla \ Firefox \ Profiles \ (somestring)
or was that what you meant?

Yeah, that's what I meant. Looks like I'll have to start from scratch. Anyone have experience with Del.icio.us bookmarks or something similar?

Have you run a file system check? It might recover the file.

Well, that't tough. Make it a learning experience. I bought a USB dongle (512 MB) and save my bookmarks to it every week. Also backup saved e-mail, scanned documents, etc. Also export and save your registry (this was my learning experience!)
Just takes a few seconds.
