"They were moved...". Please expand.

What does the Mozilla website or Firefox's built-in help have to say about
this non-XP question?

Ask whomever moved them. You said, "They were moved and I don't know where
they go in" --> how are we supposed to know where they were moved on your
computer?

Maybe you mean "Where does Firefox store Internet cookies by default?"...
[URL="http://tinyurl.com/32nz9d8"]http://tinyurl.com/32nz9d8[/URL]

Using the example search given, I quickly came to this web page:
[URL="http://kb.mozillazine.org/Cookies"]http://kb.mozillazine.org/Cookies[/URL]
(Which is nice because it is, as one might say, 'from the horses mouth'.)

Seems in Firefox 3.x --> Cookies are stored in a database file.
[URL="http://kb.mozillazine.org/Cookies#Where_are_cookies_stored"]http://kb.mozillazine.org/Cookies#Where_are_cookies_stored[/URL]

Perhaps - in the future - you should learn to use Internet Search tools?
