C:\Documents and Settings\windows login user(active)\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxx.default\bookm arkbackups***look for the bookmark which has the biggest file size (this will be a .html file) or second from the latest bookmark. then import to firefox from there, that should be it" than you can just import them from the .html file.

RE: Question for Firefox users
actually you don't, there is a bookmark you can make that has the same function...essentially click on the link when you want to bookmark and it's added to google bookmarks...without using the toolbar (although the toolbar is the easiest way)...
