I've actually had success taring up ~/.mozilla and moving it to another 
computer. As long as the version of mozilla is close, everything moves 
(font selection, email setup, bookmarks, etc). I'd suggest renaming the 
original .mozilla directory first, untar the directory from the old 
machine and give it a try. Worst case, just delete what you copied over 
and rename the original back to .mozilla. You haven't lost anything 
trying it.
