[TheForge] OT- for computer geeks OT OT OT ( sounds like seals)

[Peter Fels And Phoebe Palmer]

If I might beg similar directions from my puter superiors please...
Where do I find  the equivalent and address book  files for  the Mozilla

I want to migrate to Thunderbird to go with the firefox browser I'm 
using and don't know the file location to import from.
Your help is greatly appreciated as I'm a mere sub geek..........Pete F
