User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.10) Gecko/20100915 Ubuntu/10.04 (lucid) Firefox/3.6.10

Right clicking to bookmark a page and creating a new bookmark folder causes firefox to hang, after which an unresponsive script pop-up appears.







Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right click to book mark a page.
2. Choose the right hand button drop down menu that allows you to create a new folder.
3. Click the 'New Folder' button.
4. Enter a new folder name and press return.
Actual Results:  
Result is a long pause, eventually a pop up appears with the message:

"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.

Script: file:///usr/lib/firefox-3.6.10/modules/debug.js:59"

Choosing to stop the script closes the bookmarks menu, however the new bookmark folder does get created.

Expected Results:  
The new folder should have been added and the bookmark menu stay open.

Bug present also in version prior to 3.6.

My add-ons are:

Flashgot 1.2.1.31
QuickJava 1.7.2
Ubuntu firefox modifications 0.9rc2
