276032 - Firefox hangs when "From Internet Explorer" bookmarks menu is highlighted

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 273198

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[Dvir]

When I highlight the "From Internet Explorer" menu item in the Bookmarks menu,
Firefox hangs for around a minute and the menu is fronted on top of all other
applications while this hang lasts (see attached screenshot).

My internet explorer bookmarks have a few network shortcuts and I think this
behavior is similar to the behavior reported in bug 98682 (for the Mozilla
Suite). I didn't find a similar bug for Firefox.

I have the same problem with mozilla imported Bookmarks.
If it doesn't hang(freezes for araund aminute) at once, 
i just have to navigate a littlebit in my bookmarks.

I think the problem is fixed now since version 1.06.
Whatever has changed there...
