Ok, i start the computer, open Firefox and it says Firefox is slow opening, reset. So i click the reset button, it then wipes my toolbars, history, homepage and most other information. That in itself is not really a problem, but the thing is it will now not bookmark pages. There is a couple of ways to bookmark a page and none of them will work Any ideas ?

Cheers

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox? Look inside. Look for the folder with the latest creation date.
