Default Backup cookies?


I think my PC is in need of formatting, I want to backup my cookies, in
IE this is easy but I cannot see the option to do so in Firefox 2.0?

Any suggestions?

Back up the entire profile. Then you can restore FF to exactly the way
you have it set up now:

Hi Moo. Backup your profile folder: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile

When you rebuild the system, install and start FF then close FF and
migrate your old profile data into your new profile:
