Comment from [e-mail]:
I have seen the same problem using Firefox 1.0 on Win98SE. Freeze occurs either
on clicking "Bookmarks" or "Go" tabs. 100% reproducible. I have downloaded both
US English and UK English versions and the problem is seen in both versions

Similar error in bookmarks. Could be similar to Bug 279154 since occured after
connection to FTP Server. But had results simialr to this bug, with Bookmarks
Menu  hanging system.

Sorry forgot to add that I have installed the nightly build for the last 2
nights, but no correction to error. I have also uninstalled all extensions,
deleted all cookies, history, and cache, but no correction to error. 

Also I am able to still use the Bookmarks Toolbar sucessfully, I am also able to
right-click and save to Bookmarks Folders. I am running XP with the Firefox 1.0
browser, for over 2 months now. Will continue to see if I can debug, looking at
my VPN with FTP.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

sorry for bugspam, long-overdue mass reassign of ancient QA contact bugs, filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
