hello..i have an older mac 10.3.9 and Firefox 2.00. I cannot upgrade to Firefox 3. i am thinking of upgrading computers.

i want to take all my stored firefox passwords and settings with me when i change computers.

i am not a tech minded individual, but i did read that i could go to Library/application support/firefox/profiles in my finder

i want to be able to find where all my firefox profile information is and i hope to be able to put it all on a zip drive to take with me.

will i be able to find my profile information and stored passwords for Firefox and put it on a zip drive? 

How.?

thank you alimaggie

To backup or restore passwords in Firefox 2.0.x you need two files: key3.db and signons2.txt
