I accidentally changed my user setting and lost all my favorites. How do I go back to my default?

Unless you saved your bookmarks, you really can't. Unless maybe try to go to System Restore and go back a day or two. Sometimes though the bookmarks comeback after a while, it's a weird thing.

I'm always scared of that happening which is why I export my bookmarks to my external HD regularly.

What exactly do you mean by 'user setting'? If your old profile is still around your bookmarks (and everything else) can be retrieved quite easily.

Your profile might be here: "On Windows XP/2000, the path is usually %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\, where xxxxxxxx is a random string of 8 characters. Just browse to C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ and the rest should be obvious."

At any rate you may want to refer to the faq for a start: http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/faq.html
