Mkay, so I woke up, turned computer on, opened Mozilla, the splash screen had reset to the default, I also don't have any of my bookmarks and and my noscript has been reset as well. Anyone know why? How to fix this? Wouldn't be a problem if I didn't lose bookmarks.

This has happened before but I just ignored it.

There are online services that can host your bookmarks for synchronizing them between computers. You can also use it as a backup service when this thing happens.

First time happened a long ass time ago, hasn't happened much in the past 4-5 months.

@appalsap, elaborate if you can?

did you delete any temp. internet files?
and do you have a mac or pc?


PC, and no. I only do that when I defrag which isn't often anymore. Takes too long to defrag 100GB.

You probably lost them all...

next time use Foxmarks Bookmark Synchronizer; probably the only good Addon they have

Yep, lost them all except 2 under the back, forward, refresh, etc stuff.

Thanks for the link, had no clue it was an add-on. It'll be installed right now.

Unless Opera can get NoScript, I'm staying with Firefox.

Opera has a script/plugin disabler built-in, though it might not be as convenient without site-specific allowing.

Disables javascript on pages.

Eg: meatttspin/rickroll won't work unless you manually let it.

isn't there a function to turn javascript off in firefox?

and what version are you using? I suggest you not use Firefox 3 Beta 1 (or any test firefox 3)

umm scan for viruses?

save all your bookmarks in IE (if you have it) and when it happens just import the bookmarks from IE
