In browser mode, when you are dragging a web page up to a subfolder in your main bookmark menu (not the hot purple display book button),When dragging the bookmark to a subfolder you will create a normal highlight or a small highlight,which will iradically switch back and forth from normal highlight to small highlight but only sometimes,and is to sensitive for the normal mouse movement(not enough wiggle room going from folder to subfolder which i have 15 years of mousing experience and no shaky hand syndrome) which is only sometimes related to the maine problem. Which is when you are hovering over to a subfolder that subfolder will disappear sometimes.    

Reproducible: Sometimes

1.drag the web page that you are on, up to the main bookmark menu

3.then go in and then hover over a subfolder and drop it into a subfolder

Actual Results:  
when you try to hover over the subfolder that subfolder disappears and you can
not drop your bookmark in to the subfolder 

Expected Results:  
drop your bookmark in to the subfolder

You filed four identical bugs about this problem.  I'm duping the three newest ones to the oldest of these four bugs, and then I will dupe that to bug 419911.  If you feel that bug 419911 is not the same problem, please reopen bug 422626.  In the future, please open only one bug per issue; unless the bug has been marked as FIXED, there is no need to open a new one for each new version.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
