well as usual, i'm being blamed...
My mom cannot find her firefox bookmarks on...firefox. they just disappeared, and i dont know where they are or where they went, and its very urgent that i find out, because there were extremely important links in there and i just need to get them back. thanks in advance.
Ctrl-B, and it's empty ?
you can find a backup of your bookmarks in the Firefox profile directory, that should be in Documents and SettingsApplication DataMozillaFirefox.... Fastest way to get there? Win+R, %appdata%, return 
ahh thanks...too bad its overwritten by now....f**k...
Just an idea.
Won't help you out now but, maybe sign your moms up for a Box.net account then get the firefox extension that backs it up automatically. 
also check out some undelete utilities, the file may still be there, just marked as deleted.
wait BapeStar! in the profile directory you can find a folder named bookmarkbackups, and in there there are usually five backups for the latest five days - I don't believe they are all gone!
yea, i did look in all five of them, and all five are bad.
@ Slewed, what kinda undelete utilities? Firefox extensions?
I use FEBE http://customsoftwareconsult.com/extensions/
That might be overkill for your mom?
That's why I suggested the Box.net one, also you then access the bookmarks anywhere.
