In some bookmark folders, on the bookmark toolbar, a bookmark will be dropped into the folder but will not be visible within the folder. However, if "Open All in Tabs" is clicked the invisible bookmarks will open in tabs, so they are there.

Additionally, sometimes it is impossible to delete a bookmark from a folder, and I have to copy the bookmark, put it in a bookmark toolbar folder that works, and delete the frozen folder.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. I have not found a way to predict which folders will freeze or hide bookmarks.
2.
3.



In the past I had a problem with mu home computer getting hacked and I don't know if this is just another related problem from that.

Is this still happening to you?

None of the bookmark folders on the bookmark toolbar have that problem now. If it happens again I'll add another comment with details.

I think this was fixed along the road to Firefox 4.0. Please reopen if you can reproduce in this latest version.
