  try a new Profile if that helps export/import ur bookmarks to new profile
It's a good idea.

When you reinstalled it and all, did you delete the old files (including "AppData")?

Hack, hack, hack!

Ok guys - I tried the profile manager (which  didn't want to load) along with a lot of other things. I just deleted all the registry entries/program files and am re-installing firefox as we speak. I hope THAT works :-/


Update: Someone at the mozilla.org forums helped me fix it! :)
