it always be there but u can choose to import it into Firefox/Safari/Chrome.
Firefox does offer import option on the first startup or you can import/export bookmarks manually. |

In fact, you can even have the same bookmarks/favorites in Firefox 3. During installation of FF3, the setup will ask the user whether bookmarks/favorites should be imported. Hope I've helped.

All other things, Firefox. Web Developer add-on is awesome! along with a bunch of other things. |
