User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

I always place my Live Bookmarks in a folder on the Bookmarks Toolbar. Live Bookmarks of similar type and/or origin are put together in subfolders. The name of this folder (RSS-feeds) is visibel at the right hand side of the folder icon.

If FF is updated, the name of this folder disappears. Right Click and selecting Properties gives a window with the name: Properties for "(null)"

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add new folder to the Bookmarks Toolbar
2. put Live Bookmark in it
3. update FF
4. restart FF
Actual Results:  
Name of folder with Live Bookmarks is removed. Folder is still there and the content seems unaltered.

Expected Results:  
The name of the folder should not have been removed.

Found out there are more users with this problem on an internet forum (forgot which). There solution fixed my problem. Had to use "Organise Bookmarks" to solve this.
