Does anybody knows how I can change my profile on Firefox? I lost all my bookmarks and settings because I, accidently, changed my profile (I created a profile that I never used, and I can't even remember how I did...). Help please...

I presume your using Windows?
If you are and you haven't deleted this other (original) profile then you will find the bookmarks in

C:\Documents and Settings\$profile_name\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\SOMETHING.default\

$profile_name = your original windows logon name

On a Linux system it will most likely be
root/home/$USERNAME/.mozilla/firefox/SOMETHING.default/

In fact you could just search for bookmarks.html on any type of system I suppose
