    For the life of me I can not remember how I pinned that bookmark to the icon in the start menu. I have done several searches but all I could find pertains to Firefox add-ons - in this case I do not have an add-on that allows this.

    Any suggestions?

    Yep, but the items on my jump list are 'tasks' so they can't be pinned.

    The item that was pinned should simply be able to be unpinned by clicking the pin icon when you hove over the item.

    I find the way how to pin your fav bookmarks, for now is manually, I m looking where w7 is storing the items of the jump list.

    1. FF must be pinned in start menu.
    2. Load FF
    3. visit the url you want.
    4. at the left side of the url you will find the icon of your url, you have to drag that icon into the firefox icon in the task bar.

    You don't need FF pinned to the start menu.

    -In the address bar in your browser, click and hold the favicon. If there is no favicon, click and hold where it's supposed to be.

    -Drag it to the start button, and let go. You can also do this on the desktop, or anywhere else.

    I am aware that I can drag the icon anywhere and place it where ever. I was actually trying to figure out how to pin more bookmarks to the actual icon.

    My bad, in that case, go one step further, and drag it to the bookmark folder in the start menu. First, I think you need to add it to the start menu like I said before, and them move it to pin it in the Mozilla menu. Not sure if there is an easier way.
