how do I save add-on data when reloading firefox?
Having trouble with connecting to some sites such as banking and email server Support for those sites suggest I reload Firefox However, all my add-ons will be dumped in the process. I don't wish to reenter all my preferences for various add-ons. eg: Will I have to reenter all my SpeedDial sites? If so, how can I save and retrieve them?

These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox
FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension) {web link} FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild your saved files individually into installable .xpi files. It will also make backups of files that you choose.
