I think I am asking a software question, but I am not sure. I recently added an administrator profile to my laptop. I had to restore all my Firefox 3.0 preferences from FEBE to be the same as those on my regular profile. When FEBE restored all my bookmarks and addons including Smart Bookmarks Bar the icons in the Bookmarks toolbar disappeared. Is there an option that I need to check, a file that I need to find/copy or something else that I need to do in order to get the icons to show in the bookmarks toolbar?

You just have to visit the sites a couple of times and the icons will load back up. That's what I had to do when I transferred by bookmarks from XP to Vista.

I have never had to do this before. The icons always appeared immediately after I import the bookmark files.
It's all about temporary file of a browser that U use. If its in shared file any user for whom is visible can derive from it.

O.K. that seems like it might explain it since I set up a new profile (Administrator) that I am using. I guess if I were using my old profile the icons would all be visible. Oddly, however, I am noticing that even when I visit some of the pages the icon does not load. What explains this oddity?
Maybe the website removed their icon? or maybe you have them disabled somehow :S

Some of these are common websites with common logins such as my cellphone login with AT&T, Chase Online Banking, Blockbuster Online, etc. I do not think that most of them are because the website removed its icon. I don't know how creating an administrator profile and logging in under it would disable my bookmark icons. I also don't understand why it would only disable half of them if this was the cause of the confusion.
