Thanks Dan, I tried using Spotlight to find where bookmarks sit (so I could copy and temporarily delete them as per your experiment), I found saejzxbg.default and a group of .json files, but these seem to be only backups of the actual data, where resides the motherlode? The latest .json was 2.2 mb - doesn't seem that large to me, any idea how many bookmarks this represents? I like the feature of Bookdog to search out dead URL's, might just save up my pennies for their $20 fee. Know of any freeware that could do this? With the research my wife and I do in a dozen subjects - thousands of bookmarks is not surprising at all - what's surprising to me is that an app for research (like Firefox) can't seem to handle it. thanks, Del --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
