You may or may not know that the Profiles are hidden in Win XP. So take a look if you have a Netscape profile folder with the path given. If there is a folder there, you could modify the Target line of your shortcut, by adding -p default, with keyboard space before -.
If there is nothing in that folder, you should uninstall it, and reinstalled it, having allowed the program to delete the profile. But, probably this is what you are experiencing now. If you don't have a backup of the file, you are out of luck. Are these totally new bookmarks, or were they imported from some other program?
