You need the file places.sqlite in the Firefox Profile Folder
See:
- Recover important data from an old profile
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
- XP: x:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
- Vista/Windows 7: x:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders
