I have tried restoring; - from the restore list - from IE favourites - from an older copy of my bookmarks list which I had on a flash drive

Here are some of the error console messages:

Error: Async statement execution returned with '11', 'database disk image is malformed' Source File: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsPlacesDBFlush.js Line: 312

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8052000b (NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED) [nsINavBookmarksService.runInBatchMode]" nsresult: "0x8052000b (NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://browser/content/places/utils.js :: anonymous :: line 1274" data: no]

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
