well, back up your bookmarks (Bookmarks -> Organize Bookmarks -> File -> Export), then nuke the profile folder(s).

Navigate to:

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default
(where xxxxxxxx is somethingrandom, there should only be one)

and delete the entire folder.
