How to Backup and Restore Firefox Passwords and Bookmarks

Tonight I uninstalled my Firefox and then reinstalled it after having ongoing issues. However before I removed Firefox I first backed up my saved passwords and bookmarks. Lets face it I had way to much saved that there was no way I wanted to have to type all of that back in. So I thought I would share how to do this.

To back up bookmarks:
Click on "Bookmarks" in the uper left hand corner, then click on "Organize Bookmarks"

how can I See a deleted Outlook email?

i have access to the boss's email from my computer. we use outlook. i cannot see his sent emails but only the ones he receives, yesterday an email was sent to him in response to one he sent this person, i was the topic of conversation, i didn't read it because it was unread by him and i didn't want to open it because the other person would have been notified, so instead i decided to wait until he read it then go back in and read it. however when i went back in later it had been deleted, is there any way i can see his deleted items from my computer ?

Geek Gear

I saw this in the grocery store tonight (on clearance too) - how cute is this:

Look you can make a mouse house and glue googly eyes on your mouse. Yeah I dont think I would add glue but they give it to you. I would also have to beat my kid if they put glue all over my monitor. I just thought this was too cute - no I didn't buy it...thought about it for a second.

What is MTU? - Maximum Transmission Unit

Hey Stardogg !

What is MTU ?

How do we find the correct MTU for our computers ?

How and where do we change the MTU value on Windows and Mac computers ?

Is it better to leave the standard MTU value at 1500 or custom ?

If we do change the MTU value, what difference will we notice ?

Hey Stardogg !

What is DNS ?

How will changing our DNS numbers affect our computer, other than helping our browsing experience speed up?

Is it safe to do?

What DNS server IP address's do we use to accomplish this?
