How do I transfer all my Firefox saved passwords to my new hard drive and operating system? Going from xp to windows 7. I have the old hard drive hooked up as drive f. Can I copy and paste from old drive directory to new drive directory?

You need to copy 2 files, key3.db and signons.sqlite, from the old profile folder to the profile folder on the new computer.
