i have firefox 8.0.1

it never fails; whenever i restore windows, something always gets dropped. i've move "my documents" folder to the "d" drive, but when i restore windows, i lost all my fax documents. and my fax settings. and my fax contact information. same thing is happening with firefox. i want to back up my exceptions. i don't want to have to start to manually rebuild my exceptions folder after a fresh install. why are the bookmarks given so much attention, while the exceptions are overlooked ?

The exceptions are store in the permissions.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder
