How can I get my old Firefox My Home and My Links pages back, and all my bookmarks?
I have a new computer with Win 7 64 bit and started to use Minefield, but I decided to go back to Firefox. Now have Firefox 4 but need all my links and bookmarks I have on my other system. What files do I need to look for from my other old drive to get my added links and bookmarks for my Google homepage in Firefox.?

Your old Profile is located here in Win XP and W2K:
drive:\Documents and Settings\Windows login user name\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\profile_name
Thunderbird support is over here. (I don't use it myself.)

Thanks for that - meant to say - my old drive used XP. Obviously you know where I have to look so if you could tell me where to look in XP I would greatly appreciate it. ( Brand new system since yesterday and I am madly going around trying to find bits of missing information. This also includes all my email addresses and messages in my old xp drive for Thunderbird.) Thankyou for your time.
