I think the Firefox bookmarks are somewhere in the Firefox profile - I'm 
not sure they're that obvious these days. For better information, ask in 
the Firefox newsgroup (you need to sign up to the Mozilla news server to 
get it, but it's free).

Two possibilities I've thought of: firstly, if you have Firefox synched 
across two or more machines, and have deleted them on one, then (if I 
understand correctly what sync is supposed to do) they'll soon be 
deleted from the other(s). My other thought was that if it's the sidebar 
that has disappeared, then maybe you've just accidentally turned off the 
display of it - varies with version, but try under View first. (I 
recently wondered where my status bar had gone - I have the status4ever 
add-on, and I even tried disabling and re-enabling that, which didn't 
cure it - but I'd just somehow unticked it in the View menu.) If you've 
still got the sidebar displaying, but it's just missing one folder 
(called computer?), it won't be that.

The one that finds files, if you know part of the filename, usually 
before you've finished typing it! if your partitions are NTFS (which is 
the default for XP), is "Everything", from http://www.voidtools.com/; if 
you're looking for something actually inside a file, Agent Ransack seems 
to be the one most people like.
