(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Jeremy]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5

Opened the "Organize Bookmarks..." window. Clicked on "Bookmarks Menu" on the left plane. Once the Bookmarks Menu opened in the right plane, I righted clicked and choose "New Folder". After I created the folder, I proceeded to drag and drop Bookmarks into the newly created folder. After moving a few bookmarks Firefox crashes. Or if you hold the bookmark over the folder for the folder to open, Firefox crashes whenever it tries to change to the new folder.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open "Organize Bookmarks"
2.Click on "Bookmark Menu" in the left plane.
3.Create a new folder.
4.Start dragging bookmarks from the Bookmark Menu to the newly created folder.
5.Try hovering over the new folder to open the folder before dropping the bookmark.
Actual Results:  
Sometime it works fine; however, other times Firefox crashes completely. The whole program crashes and must be reopened.

Expected Results:  
Bookmarks should have been moved without incident or resulting in a program crash.

Aero is turned off in Vista. Yahoo Messenger was also open at the time and FrostWire was running in the background.  My antivirus is Avast.  Only site was open when crash occurred.
