Author Bookmark organizer for Firefox?

Can anyone recommend a bookmark organizer for Firefox? Mine are a mess and
I can't seem to get it right with what's built in.

Thanks... Bob

I feel like a real idiot but all I'm really trying to do so sort my
bookmarks alphabetically as IE does, first by folder, then by site. I don't
know why I should be having so much trouble.

Also: re:START/FAVORITES from XP I do not get the same bookmark list as in
Firefox, why?

Thanks... Bob

FF bookmark manager is less than robust. You need to create folders in
your bookmarks manager and drag and drop individual bookmarks where you
want them.

Because IE stores every "favorite" as a separate shortcut file on your
hard disk. FF stores all "bookmarks" in one HTML file in your profile.
You can import FF bookmarks into IE and vice-versa if you need to keep
them synced.

Here are a couple links that might help:
