Bookmarks disapearing on startup

I have recently had a problem with my bookmarks on Firefox startup. The problem has manifested itself in two distinct ways. 1)My bookmarks on the toolbar are all replaced by a single bookmark, ie all of my bookmarks become bookmarks for CNN.com 2)Individual bookmarks are missing, ie a single bookmark is missing from the toolbar or folders. The CNN or the Hotmail bookmark is just gone.

I am able to use the restore function to replace my bookmarks, so I have not permanently lost anything, but I have to use the restore function almost every time I start up Firefox.

Not sure if this helps or not, but OS is the current Ubuntu (Lucid Lynx) and I am using adblock and noscript addons.

Thank you for any help you may be able to share on this!

From your symptoms, it seems that the bookmarks and history database (places.sqlite) is corrupted. The best fix is to remove this database, restart Firfefox, and import backups.

  1. Ensure you have a good backup of your bookmarks. (Save one of the JSON files from before it was corrupted - see Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer.
  2. Follow the steps at Can't add, change or save bookmarks - How to fix under the "Places database file" section
