I don't remember if this is a common problem or not, but Firefox deleted all my favorites? Explain, Lucy?

It did that to me. Did you get one of those profile things? Or did you just open it and deleted. Both have happened to me. I don't know how to fix the latter. |

Chances are you changed profiles. Ctrl+alt+delete>Processes>find firefox.exe>stop process>Restart. :unsure: |

I am pretty sure it is a bug within Firefox. You are automatically asigned a default profile when you install FF and for whatever reason sometimes it can just be deleted reverting you back to the default pre-customization version; try using MozBackup to save your stuff |

It keeps happening to me. An easier way to back up is to: 1) Enable hidden files (Tools, Folder Options, View, Show Hidden Files and Folders) 2) Go to C:\Documents and Settings\"computer user name"\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles 3) Copy the folder to a safe location. 4) Disable hidden files (protect that porn).

I do but it still happens to me. Usually when I shut down my computer without closing Firefox. |

Backup with the program i showed you above bi-daily or after an addition to your bookmarks you'd like to keep then you shouldnt have a major issue. Sometimes it used to happen to me when i had too many tabs open and FireFox would crash. I would then close it, and reopen FireFox too quickly and it would accidently overight my profile
