a good spot to start is http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Lost+Bookmarks You can also take a look at the forums and live chat: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Support+Website+Forums http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Ask+a+question#Firefox_support_live_chat I recommend that you install Firefox 3.5 directly, by using IE to download it from mozilla.com, and install it over 2.
