I use firefox as a browser (this is not an ad, I really don't care whether or not you use Internet Explorer) and this morning after I lost powder while Firefox was running I lost all my bookmarks (which I think are called "favourites" in Explorer).....I had a moment of near panic here...but getting one step farther from complete computer ignorance I managed to find the Bookmark back up folder in my user profile and reload it as my bookmarks!!!
I'm quite proud of myself!!!...It doesn't take very much.
