I would like to know how to backup my bookmarks in the internet browser program FIREFOX. I would certainly hate to loose my bookmarks should my hard drive go down! Thanks

Backup the file bookmarks.html from your profile folder.

I like this one: Firefox Bookmark Synchronizer.
Not only does it back up your bookmarks to a server, but it allows you to synch your bookmarks on multiple computers.

Best answer: Or you can backup your whole darn profile.

I use this - http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=291258 - as it backs up all your profile and not just your bookmarks. Be sure to check the box Don't back up my cache (unless you really want it) as that makes it take longer.

BTW, why do people confuse loose and lose? They have very different meanings.

forget about bookmarks - the only one you need is del.icio.us/Mckoan1 - go to del.icio.us for further explanation

yeah, what FidelDonson said. All you need is www.del.icio.us - it's an online social bookmarking system. Not only can you put all your own bookmarks on there with titles and descriptions, but you can browse everybody elses, ergo gaining some great bookmarks from them too. =D
