How to squirrel away bookmarks for safekeeping during upgrade?
My wife has Firefox 2.0 installed and wants to upgrade. But the "check for updates" menu item under Help is greyed out. I suspect it is because there is no single upgrade from such an ancient version to an up-to-date one.
The alternative is an installation of a recent version.
The problem: how to squirrel away her bookmarks so they survive the installation of the new version? I can't find a folder on the hard drive that looks anything like a Bookmarks folder...

I can not remember if v2 was exactly the same but v3 allows bookmarks to be exported, then re-imported as either .json or .html files.
Recent releases also try to keep bookmarks on upgrades, so with luck you see the same bookmarks after an upgrade.
Someone may give a more detailed answer specifically relating to v2 meanwhile you may find the article on Bookmarks of interest
