If you have hundreds of bookmarks in different folders like I do you might know the problem that bookmarks are added from time to time that already exist in your list. It is not that easy to manage the bookmarks and keep an overview over them all. A complicated folder structure with many subfolders is adding to the problem. It really does not help to check your bookmarks manually every know and then, this takes to long and does not prevent that duplicate bookmarks are added at a later date again. The Firefox extension Bookmark Duplicate Detector is helpful for users with a lot of bookmarks.
It can aid you when you need to import bookmarks from another system to prevent that duplicate entries are added to your bookmark list. It also allows you to search for duplicates in your bookmarks and delete them afterwards. The best feature as far as I can tell is a warning whenever you want to add a site that is already listed in your bookmarks. It displays the location of the old bookmark and prompts the user for action. Possible actions are to add the new bookmark as a duplicate entry or cancel the process.
Other features include the function to backup your bookmarks and a search function that lets you search your bookmarks for names, description or keywords. This can be useful if you have a large amount of bookmarks.

Useless.
Forces you to remove duplicate one by one.
I agree with you Larry,it is clearly useless.I have about 20 or more duplicates and its a waste of time to go through each one of them to delete them.The purpose of any software is to make computing easier.I can delete duplicate bookmarks the same way the software does by just comparing them and deleting them one by one.
I also agree that it is a piece of shit as it should automatically remove duplicate bookmarks and not asking one by one.
yes. BookmarkDD is pretty useless
since it cannot remove duplicates automatically.
They ae stoopid havin that feature – it originally had – removed.
now Bookmark Duplicate Detector is just a Tool to tell u what u already know: that u hav duplicate bookmarks …..
-.-
crap.
