I had to restore my computer to the original restore point. Windows XP backed up my files but now I cannot find my bookmarks file after I downloaded Firefox.

I had a corrupt config.sys file and had to restore my laptop to original Windows XP restore. It backed up my documents and files, but I lost all my .exe's. I downloaded a new version of Firefox and now can't find my bookmarks. I haven't saved a backup for awhile, but all of my other files are there. Where can I find my bookmarks?

Firefox stores the bookmarks and the history in the places.sqlite file.
