How to recover Firefox passwords after new install?
I upgraded Firefox from v3.0.18 to v3.6.2. I did a clean install after backing up my *.default directory.
How can i transfer/import the saved logins and passwords from my Firefox backup? I tried replacing the signons.sqlite table but it did not work.
FYI, I have a signons3.txt file which contains the data. See sample in code section. The password strings have been modified so they are no good. Is this of any benefit?

Good idea. I am on FF 3.6.2, so I need to do the second solution.
