Immediately after I did I put a copy of places.sqlite from my profile in a safe place. places.sqlite seems to have thousands of urls in it. I am running 3.5.9 on FC11 (yeah I know I should upgrade but can't at the moment). Therefore I don't have "Help > Troubleshooting Information" available to me. Is there anything I can do (like upgrade to 3.6) to get the tabs back or are they gone forever?

Thanks for any help.

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10. I installed the Spanish (spain) dictionary for OpenOffice using "sudo apt-get install myspell-es" which also invaded firefox and suddenly my right click > languages menu for spell checking is loaded to the nuts with choices of dictionaries for every kind of spanish from cuban to venezuelan.

Moreover, English US and English UK both appear twice. I ran "sudo apt-get remove myspell-es" and the spanish dicts. disappeared, which is good, but how do I remove the redundant australian english, us english, and uk english dictionaries from the right click firefox menu because right now there are 2 of each of those?

Some websites get substituted with a spam site. These sites claim they are checking your computer for viruses. In reality if you click on the pop-up window you install malware. The only way out is to go to the OS and use the task manager to kill Firefox. The next time you try to use Firefox it automatically tries to reload the last pages visited including the malware page. How do I disable the attempt to reload the web pages? If this function is not available it needs to be added to the Firefox program.

I did not upgrade for a long time and was probably on a 2.x release of some sort but last month I finally upgraded to 6.x and ever since Gmail and Pandora have told me my browser is out of date. I can still use Gmail but Pandora will not load anything.

I have cleared my cache and I have removed cookies but I still get the same error message.

I am using features that were introduced in version 6.x but even this site believes I'm using 3.5.9.

If I have to uninstall and reinstall, how can I do that without losing all of my saved passwords and other information?
