well I did all that [copied and pasted it in exactly] but it made no change. How, exactly do I "feed back" my old bookmarks, passwords and history? btw while looking around for some clue I did find my old bookmarks in a plain html file in /home/merlin/.old_mozilla - and clicking on those links opens up those pages in Konqueror! So at least I can browse most places, except for any that require logging in. All my passwords are still somewhere in the old Mozilla settings - how do I get them back? And, of course, Konqueror doesn't have tabbed browsing that I like... TIA, -- Merlin Zener Piano, Synthesizer Thailand. "...if my calculations are correct..."
