Your Firefox has probubley crashed. Luckily they keep backups of your bookmarks as I had this happen to me. Go to

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ynim7z35.default\bookmarkbackups

And that should be were it is.

Are you going to Bookmarks - Manage Bookmarks - file- import then going and then importing the HTML file?

you have 3 current bookmarks in this folder
(bookmarks.html
bookmarks-1.html
bookmarks.bak)

the older backups are kept in the bookmarkbackups folder

You should be able to open any of these with Firefox,if they still wont import you will have to rebuild it the hard way open them with FF and add them to a new bookmark.
