I have hundreds of pc .url files that I want to import as bookmarks. Mac Firefox opens the files as a text file, not as a web page. Mac Safari can open them no problem.

If you have still access to the computer with the .url files then export them via IE to an HTML file.
If you can open them in Safari then bookmark them and export them in Safari to an HTML file.
Then you can import that HTML file in Firefox.

Import data from another browser
