Hi, I'm replacing my PC with a new one. I have taken backup of the
adress book and bookmark, but how do I copy/backup the Pasword Manager
and import it later?

Using Mozilla 1.8a6.

TIA!

There was a MozBackup program that did just that posted here not too
long ago, do a google group search for "Mozilla Backup" If you can't
find it, email me and I'll send it to you thru http://www.yousendit.com

Thanks, PT. I found it here:
http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/

It's discontinued and last optimized for Moz 1.7.2
I'll just have to try :-)

In addition to MozBackup, you might try making your own backup as well;
if one doesn't work, maybe the other will.

Documentation at mozilla.org does not seem to have been updated since
version 1.5, but FWIW, here's the old faq section on moving profiles:

<http://www.mozilla.org/start/1.5/faq/profile.html>

And the mozillazine kb article:

Bingo! The last one had it:
# signons.txt — Saved passwords. Requires the "key3.db" file to work.
# key3.db — Supplements password file.

Thanks, »Q« :-)
