Hi Ron,
FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension) allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild your extensions individually into installable .xpi files. Now you can easily synchronize your office and home browsers.
FEBE backs up your extensions, themes, and (optionally) your bookmarks, preferences, passwords, cookies and just about everything else Firefox offers (it can even backup/restore your entire profile).
Version 5.0 allows for user-defined backups. Single files or entire directories can be specified to back up data for programs like Thunderbird, Greasemonkey, etc.
Backups can be performed on demand or scheduled for daily, weekly, or monthly unattended runs.

If anybody cares, if you're leaving machine OLD and want your Firefox.
bookmarks on machine NEW, and your login name is USER
the bookmarks are in directory folder
C:/Documents and Settings/USER/Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*.default
where * will be some hash word, different on the two machines.
and in that folder there is
bookmarks.html
With Firefox closed on both machines, simply copy the file from
one machine to the other in the respective directories, overwriting the
bookmarks in the NEW machine. The new ones of course are gone then,
unless you copy them somewhere else first.
