What bookmark tab are you talking about?
I can open bookmarks from any location using the same build on WinXP.

I'm refering to the Sidebar tabs with "What's Related", "Search", etc. I can
select the Bookmarks tab and it opens up showing my bookmarks, but I am not able
to select any of them from that tab. I can invoke the pulldown menu for
bookmarks and then select a URL and go to that page.

Also, when I select "Manage Bookmarks" under the Bookmarks pulldown, I can't
select any of the bookmarks. Also, I can't select "New Folder", "New Separator",
"File Bookmark(s)...", etc., on the second pulldown menu bar.

Does the same thing happen if you create a new profile?

Comment 6

[Ed Bruce]

Yes. Also I noticed that when I opened Edit/Preferences. I can't select any of
the options under Category, like Appearance, Navigator, Composer, etc. I was
attempting to setup my proxy settings.
