I wanted to go onto mozilla then all of a sudden i got this: Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.

I dont even know why i got this, because i never touched any of my mozilla files. I also did as the firefox helper said. to restart and to check all the profile and stuff. But it didn't work!!!! I found out that my profile folder has been deleted. well i think it is as i cannot find it!!! I do not know how this has happened~!!!

I have important bookmarks that i want to recover, please tell me how i can recover my bookmarks.

Also i went to profile manager and this appeared: Firefox cannot use the profile "default" because it is in use.

To continue, close the running instance of Firefox or choose a different profile.

Why does this happen??? Please help me recover my bookmarks!!!!!
