Firefox is my default browser. Is there a way to put Bookmarks on the Start
menu rather than Favorites?

DON'T FEED THE TROLLS. Since this is the Vista group, what does Firefox
have to do with Vista? Maybe that makes you a troll. So DON'T FEED THE
TROLLS.

Regardless of which browser you use, I don't think so...you can pin programs
to the Start Menu - but I haven't seen a way to put internet bookmarks there.

I can get one into All Programs, but not Start.

Did you read the question ? Maybe. But did you understand it. I think not.


........how about the Start Menu is a part of Vista.

You should just stick to playing around with the 4 or 5 people you normally
do, and not try to address any questions, at all, from people actually
looking for help. It's hard to help when you can't even understand the
questions.

It's pretty simple to do so

All you have to do is open the browser, click on Bookmarks (for Firefox, or
Favorites for IE) and then drag the bookmark/favorite that you wish to the
part of the start menu that holds your pinned items.

Once you do that, presto, it's there.

That's not /quite/ what I want to do. Vista (and XP before it) allows you to
put a link to the Favorites FOLDER (not an individual favorite) the Start
Menu - what I would like to do is to replace that with a Firefox Bookmarks
link...
