thanks for these answers but they are after the fact. i just copied the bookmarks folder to the flash drive then i deleted Firefox then i downloaded a new copied of the program and then installed it. then i went to locate the bookmarks data and i did not see the folder. so i just imported the bookmarks from internet explorer and rearranged them to my taste. thanks for the help.

i suppose i should have used the backup link and that may have worked better.

i would rather use a newer version of Firefox but the spellbound program fails in the newer versions and i like that little program. no one seems to have updated spellbound to work with the new versions of Firefox. when version 3.6 fails and i can't get it to go again i will go back the internet explorer or to chrome they have nice spell checker programs that i like but I'm use the fire fox so i just keep using it.
