My Browser Deleted My Bookmarks

Awhile ago, someone posted a link to a website, with viewable old GM division catalog and advertisements. Anyone else bookmark it?

Have any other favorite GM links?

If you have firefox it creates backups of your bookmarks. Firefox has done that to me before in the past.

Olds, thanks for the tip. How do I go about retrieving backed up bookmarks?

C:\Documents and Settings\(your computers user name here)\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ Then some folder with a weird name, then in that folder there should be a folder named "bookmark backups" And in that folder theres a couple backups. Just drag and drop the latest backup onto your desktop

In Firefox you can go to bookmarks > organize bookmarks, Then a bookmark manager comes up, and in that go to file > Import and a thing will come up and you want to import from a file, select that backup file you just put on the desktop.
