From my experience you don't lose the bookmarks but you could export them just to be on the safe side.JohnG said:I assume I won't lose my bookmarks ?

Steve, as this is the test version, i'd recommend emailing them as they are looking for feedback regarding bugs and compatibility issues.Steve Zodiac said:Unfortunately many Firefox extensions are not compatible with Firefox 1.5rc1. Roboform is one, and I also have 13 others that also aren't compatible, nor are there updates available for them.
I tried going back to 1.0.7 - what a b*lls up I was left with! A jumbled up screen which didn't work. I'm back on 1.5rc1 for the moment and hoping that a suitable adapter for Roboform will soon be available.
