She think that there is three files regarding security info which are 
called 7840something plus an extension of .w, .s and perhaps others. 
There exist a file called secmod.db plus two other files with the .db 
extensions. These files are probably compatible between the various FF 
versions. But what of the .sqlite files? Should She import them into 
FF31 so they gets the right format for FF31 or are they not 
version-dependent?

First, does She need to backup these .sqlite file once or after every 
use of FF31? They take up a lot of space, so is there some utility that 
can "vacuum-clean" these files to make them smaller?
