Upgraded to FF8 from FF7, still had huge memory issues. Running it on 32 bit Vista . Downgraded to 3.6, lost all bookmarks! then tried to upgrade to FF8, bookmarks still not there. Downgraded again to FF 3.6 as FF8 killing my memory.

Your Bookmarks are stored in a single file, places.sqlite, in your Profile folder. To open your Profile folder go to Help then Troubleshooting Information, then next to "Profile Directory" click the "Open Containing Folder" button to open the Profile Folder.

thank you
Please mark "Solved" the answer that really solve the problem, to help others with a similar problem.
places.sqlite got overwritten somehow. even when I tried to copy places.sqlite.corrupt it didn't help. unfortunately i didn't save bookmarks separately. i've tried to look up other suggestion and didn't seem to help. unfortunately this was my main browser before frequent upgrades with issues, so losing all my bookmarks is a big loss. if somehow i could recover bookmarks from places.sqlite.corrupt it would be great.
