I had to re-install my computer (windows 7). I made a lot of backup-files. After the new installation of Windows 7 I am now putting back all those files. I just did it successfully with my bookmarks. My next step would be my cookies for Firefox, but I cannot find the right way to import the backup file cookies.sqlite into Firefox. Could you tell me how I can solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.
