The next is the path of Favorites of IE in my computer: C:\Documents and Settings\user\favorites

Because I do an automatic back up of data periodically I need to know what is the path in Firefox in order to change it in my task file.

Thank a lot, just now I discovered Firefox and it's great I am a fan of Firefox from now.

Bookmarks are stored in the places.sqlite file, in your Profile folder.

Firefox does its' own backups of bookmarks, and those are stored in the \bookmarkbackups\ folder in the Profile folder. 10 backups are stored with the "date" of the backup as part of the file name.
