Lost all my bookmarks, need some help!

Hey
As the title says, lost over 500 individual bookmarks for no apparent reason and i can't seem to find them anywhere.
Didn't crash, didn't mess in any way with either Opera or the OS before this happened, i simply opened my PC today and there wasn't a single bookmark to be found, i checked the opera folders in both UserProfile and Program Files and found some .adr extensions but all of em had about 2 Kb and i couldn't import any of them..
Is there anything i can do about this!?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I tried renaming the .bak file with no luck, it has the 6 or so bookmarks that you get when installing Opera, and ran out of ideas at this point..
Is there any utility i could use, some recovery software or something!?

Try Windows System Restore. See my sig for a free backup utility for Opera's essential files. You should, of course, always keep your own backups on an external drive such as a CD or USB flash drive.

Thanks, i just installed Recuva on a separate drive and launched it, if it fails ro recover the file i'll try the System Restore.
Cheers!

Recuva didn't help, neither did the System Restore and i doubt anything will.. this is a major Opera fail, don't even wanna think about how much time it took to make that huge list..
Cheers for the help anywa.
