I just had to reformat my hard drive. I had firefox 3. I have all of my bookmarks save In a HTML file. How do I get them Into firefox 4? I tried Importing them Into IE first than Importing them to firefox 4. When I do that Firefox puts them Into a folder "from Internet Explorer" I don't want them In the explorer folder. I what It so when I open the bookmarks I see all mmy bookmarks. How can I do that so It not In the from Iernet folder?

Chosen solution

Please try this: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmark > Import & Export

and choose the Import. You should be able to do so. You don't need to do anything with IE.
