Upgrading to Windows 7 on new computer system from my old, worn-out XP. Trying to locate bookmarks on the old hard drive. No dice. Have done the %APP...search of the old drive. Nothing. Found a "bookmarks" html file from 2006. I know I've backed up since then, but even if I hadn't where in the world is Mozilla hiding the everyday bookmarks? Would love to take all that organizational work to the new computer rather than having to recreate the wheel. Please help.

The "Application Data" folder in XP/Win2K and the "AppData" folder in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.

You can't use %AppData% on a slave drive, you need to browse directly to (hidden) folders
