Oh, this is a common problem? Everytime it happens I lose all my bookmarks, passwords, and special (porn) links. It really pisses me off.

You "lose" all those things because you have FF create a new profile instead. All your bookmarks are still on your computer, but in one of the old profiles. Just kill the FF process in the task manager.

Yeah, it happens to me once a month or so. Don't create a new profile and restart Firefox, and all should be well.
