I just read on their site that you can't get them back, but this shaking is killing me... time for a full re-intall and I could get most of my bookmarks back from IE, but not all the new ones, also the latest news icon is gone too...

LOL.. I knew you were going to say something like that.
Toronto, have you uninstalled completely firefox and then restarted your pc?
you know how shitty is winxp and how a fresh start is the best thing to do

Do a search for the bookmark.htm, that's where the bookmarks are stored in Firefox (or mozilla). Not sure if the file is corrupted or not. Move the file to another location so you can have a "fresh" new bookmark.
Since you can open it as a html file with a list of links, you should be able to get most of your bookmarks back that way. Good luck!
edit: forgot to mention, you can import the old bookmark file in Bookmark Manager.

that can cause the weird vibrations in firefox
I remember reading about it, the guy said you have to disable the firefox skinning, and then load up a new skin.
