favourites
Is their a way of retrieving favorites without actually running FF.
like going into the individual folders where the program is stored?

Bookmarks are stored in your profile folder. (See Profiles | How to | Firefox Help.)
In recent versions of Firefox, favorites (known in Firefox as bookmarks) are stored in a database file named places.sqlite which also stores browser history. You can't read places.sqlite without a program that understands the sqlite format.
Firefox also backs up your bookmarks in a format called JSON. This is slightly easier to read.
Does this help? Do you have a specific need for bookmark information in a particular format?
