Two Windows accounts on my PC one for business and one personal use. The last sync I did combined bookmarks on both browsers. If I delete personal bookmarks from business browser they are also deleted from personal browser and same the other way around.

How do I correct this?

Is it just the two Firefoxes sharing that Firefox account? In that case, unless someone knows of a way to keep them separate, I suggest changing your Sync settings so that bookmarks are not Sync'd on one or both of the Firefoxes. Then you can manage them independently. On the Options page, Sync panel, you'll find checkboxes for the different categories of data that get Sync'd. Does that make sense?
