My Firefox profiles folder, C:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles, contains two folders: 779klznm.default, and default.s9s. Should I be backing up both of these?

Is there any reason I should be backing up the folder at Documents and Settings\Local Service\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\1p71lf0p.default ?

Thanks, Ellen

2. no reason to backing up Documents and Settings\Local Service\Application Data\Mozilla.....

"The LocalService and NetworkService profiles are automatically created by Windows XP for two new built in user accounts that are used by the Service Control Manager to host services that do not need to run as the local system account." from : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490855.aspx
