My previous computer croaked, taking my bookmarks with it. The HD runs and I can access it. How do I transfer my bookmarks to my new computer?

I have the old hard drive tied in to my new computer, and I can see files.

But I don't know how to get firefox to import my bookmarks from the old harddrive.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox

"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders

Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders"
You may want to un-check the box "Hide extensions for known file types" to see the file extensions of all files 

XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
Vista/Windows 7: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
