If I hit Alt+B or select the bookmarks toolbar the entire program hangs up.  It
no longer responds to mouse clicks, and I cannot close it.  Even closing from
the task manager is difficult, it takes quite a while for the firefox to close.
 I can use the bookmarks sidebar with no problem however.  All of my other
toolbars work correctly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open bookmarks toolbar or hit Alt+B

Actual Results:  
Complete hangup

Expected Results:  
Opened the bookmarks toolbar
are you using the default theme ?
rel/dup:
    bug 260451: bookmarks menu, bookmarks sidebar hang for >20min
    bug 259994: bookmarks menu hangs after subscribing to an RSS feed?
    bug 259819: bookmarks menu slow to open, a minute or so
Yes, I am using the default theme.  Sorry about the dupe.
can you disable your extensions and see if the probblem still occurs ?
My only extension was the Calendar, and it still occurs after removing that.
I let it sit for a while (5-10 minutes) and now I can open the toolbar just
fine.  Strangely enough, I can open it after restarting as well, although it
does hang for a second or 2 the first time I do it.

It could be a performance issue in the initialization.
