all of my passwords and saved bookmarks...I work for an online company, so I basically lost all my work and websites needed to complete my work. I want to
cry. I've already spent hours trying to think of every website I use every day and I can't come up with any. And not just work stuff, but personal
too. *cries*

That's happened to me a few times now, which is why I back everything up with Foxmarks

That happened to me once and I used this http://kb.mozillazine.org/Lost_bookmarks to restore them.
I do use Foxmarks now though. I love having the same bookmarks at work and home. |

Yeah that Doppelganger person saved my ass back when that happened to me. Actually, I believe that screenshot was from my thread.

Except now I have to click all the links and add them again
but that is soooo much better than not having them at all!
