Seems like a batch file could be created to copy the necessary files stated above, elsewhere, then delete all contents, then copy them back in making it a far quicker process… I may look into it, but if anyone else writes one, let us know

Any updates for Firefox 3 on this? Best I can tell, Firefox 3 doesn’t use bookmarks.html now that it’s switched to places for handling this data. With that change in mind, I can’t help but wonder what else has changed. Any advice?

Also we don’t like Norton’s dependency on Internet Explorer to explain Help items or services provided by Symantec (windows pop up in IE even when Firefox is your default browser), or that fee-based services have once again crept into the technical support section. Having improved a lot
last year in Symantec’s flagship antivirus product, it makes sense we’d see more modest enhancements for this year’s Norton AntiVirus 2008. While Norton
