(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[David Manton-Hall]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041110 Firefox/1.0

Following a blue screen, all bookmarks have disappeared.
Firefox was running at the time of the crash.  
The XP crash was unrelated (ATI driver issue).
Upon restarting the machine, and firefox all bookmarks had vanished.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a firefox running.
2. Get a crash
3. Restart machine and firefox

Actual Results:  
Bookmarks vanished.

Expected Results:  
Not have lost the bookmarks.

Whilst critical is perhaps overstating the severity, I have lossed all my
bookmarks as a result - which for me (and presumably others) is rather significant.
