Submitted by Mafia_Penguin on Fri, 10/31/2008 - 21:01I think I found it's Taboos:
Profile Folder/Taboo/taboo.sqlite
I'm going to try to copy+paste in into a new profile and see if it works.

In order to save thumbnails, copy the entire "taboo" folder.

Have been playing around with Febe saving and restoring complete Profiles.
Mark this could be very useful for backing up your healthy profile.
Sort of like creating a restore point
It takes a while to set up and understand.
One of the weirdist things is that when you click restore Profile it offers you which Firefox Profile to restore to. All the Profiles in Profile Manager are offered.
But you cannot restore to the Profile you are in !
So you can restore as it were remotely. This is weird but wonderful
Because it saves you having to load anything at all into the New Destination Profile and that includes Febe.
This is very smart.
Once you have worked out this procedure, well it is amazing as the new Profile is just a perfect clone of the one backed up.
So if a Complete Backuo is made of your healthy Firefox Profile and saved well that gives a great sense of security.

In the meanwhile good luck with restoring all your stuff from your previous profile.

Can't find it as yet
This page gives some information regarding how to locate the Firefox Profile for different versions of Windows.
see here

You can also of course search for a specific file, for example in this case taboo.sqlite in windows Start/Search and then see where it resides.
Good luck
