After surfing the help article titled "Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data" , I still could not locate my profile.

My old computer was out of order and I could read the data of old hard disk, It was in Win XP 2005

Profile folder on XP:

C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\

The "Application Data" folder in XP/Win2K and the "AppData" folder in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.
