    Is there anyway to transfer my ff with all the settings,bookmarks,add ons etc. from one pc to another?

    Yes, but not an all-in-one package.

    For addons, install the FEBE addon to back them all up: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2109/

    For bookmarks, go to Bookmarks, Organize Bookmarks, Import and Backup, Backup, and choose where to save the file. To reload the bookmarks into another installation of Firefox, go to Bookmarks, Organize Bookmarks, Import, and locate that file (you can put it on a USB drive or whatever).

    For settings, those are stored in your Firefox profile. Instructions for copying/backing up your profile are here: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/backing+up+your+information

    Cheers.
