I can still see encrypted names and passwords in the file signons3.txt and have tried the help at [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Password_Manager] ; [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=868655]; http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=868655.

I tried setting up a new profile and replacing the new signons3.txt with the old version including the data but that failed.

How can I recover the passwords?

I can not find anything about how to fix key3.db.

You can't fix key3.db. It is a file that is automatically generated if it is missing. You always need the correct, matching, key3.db file to be able to access names and passwords saved in a signons file. Firefox 3.5/6 versions use signons.sqlite to store the names and passwords. If you want to retrieve the passwords from older sigonons3.txt file then you have to (re)move the signons.sqlite file.

Did you look at the Troubleshooting section in the Password Manager article?
