My bookmarks keep disappearing, even after they are restored

I can not get Firefox to stop deleting my bookmarks. I have to restore from an older file to get them back. If I quit the software and restart, sometimes the bookmarks are there and other times they are not. After getting them back yet again and then saving them out for backup, if I try to restore from the backup, it's empty... no bookmarks!

This is really starting to tick me off. Any ideas that will fix this bug?

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
