Trouble getting page so reinstalled, get this message-Firefox can't find the file at place:sort=8&maxResults=10. How can I reinstall?

I was trying to customize my page but then Firefox became completely unavailable. It only gives this message, along with 'trouble finding page': Firefox can't find the file at place:sort=8&maxResults=10. I tried rebooting and then reinstalling Firefox but the same message recurs. I can only get to the web now by using Internet Explorer which I don't like. But I may have to switch to it anyway.

That is a place query (smart bookmark) for Recently Visited Location and not a normal bookmark.

Did you create this query yourself?
You can check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' (pipe) symbols.

You can check for problems with the <b>places.sqlite</b> database file in the Firefox profile folder.
