Firefox doesn't export passwords, nor does it use the HTML format for password files. Did you use a Firefox extension to export your passwords? If so, install that extension in your new installation and use that extension to import your password backup.

Also, if you still have your Profile from that other PC, see this. http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile
