If you didn't have the habit of exporting bookmarks (that is, favorites under Firefox) every day, would it be miserable? But, then again, who will really back up their bookmarks every day?

does not matter, in fact, Firefox has quietly helped us at any time to back up the bookmark for a rainy day. We can see a file called bookmarks.html by going to C:\\Documents and Settings\\your login_Application Data\\Mozilla\\Firefox\\Profiles\\yl6fvvll.default. This is your bookmark backup of the day.

At this point, Firefox will automatically pop up the download manager to help you download the current image.
