Why don't you reinstall Firefox?

I had that same problem, which discontinued my use of FireFox. It NEVER saved any of my bookmarks or settings and every restart or reintall of the program resulted in the default bookmarks... sadly I never figured out what was causing this for me so I can't really help you.. sorry.

Weirdness. Maybe it has to do something with user profiles. I forget how to switch inbetween them though. I'll go find out.

[-EDIT-]

Read this and hopefullly it'll help you out.

Even if you're out of hope, maybe it'll prepare you for the next time when firefox spazzes.

Ever think you might have recieved a virus?

I've only been using FF for a few months but I have yet to have a problem.
