   Netscape 8 holds this information as passcards. The profile file in   
   which the data is stored is xxxxxxxx.r7u. The x's are a random string   
   for security purposes.   
      
   If you are planning on doing an uninstall/reinstall of NS8, note that   
   your profile is stored in a different location then the program files.   
   The bookmarks, passwords, etc, wil still be there.  However, if you are   
   trying to solve a problem by uninstall/reinstall, if the problem is in   
   the profile, it will still be there.   
      
   So, why are you trying to uninstall/reinstall?
