User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1 I am able to drag bookmarks around to change their order in both the toolbar and in "Organize Bookmarks". The bookmarks then appear in the correct order in other (pre-existing) browser windows, new browser windows, etc. If, however, I close all the browser windows and restart the program, the bookmarks revert to their previous order. The bug showed up *most* of the time... but not every time. Since Bug 405198 is "fixed", I am re-submitting. Also, its not *exactly* the same thing. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open a browser window. 2.Left-click on a folder in the bookmarks toolbar 3.Click and drag one of your bookmarks to a different location within the same list. 4.Drop it. 5.Close Firefox. 6.Open Firefox. Observe the order of the bookmarks in the folder you just changed. Actual Results: The order of the bookmarks reverted to the order before they were changed. Expected Results: The changes should have held. Default theme. Recently upgraded to Firefox 3.0.1 Windows XP sp 3 Not sure if there's a way to work around it.

could you check in about:config if importBookmarksHTML is set to true and set it to false if that's the case? please report results here.
browser.places.importBookmarksHTML was set to true. I set it to false. It seems to be keeping my changes now. However, I don't remember doing anything in my configuration to change the default behavior. Also, I found a work-around. I can make whatever changes I like to my bookmarks, then go to Organize Bookmarks and backup my bookmarks, after which my changes stick (I don't have restore).
