I wish to divide my bookmarks into groups
I have a long list of bookmarks and wish to split them into groups so I do not have to run down the whole list just select the category.

You have an item installed in your plugins that is considered by many to be malware/spyware/adware, "My Web Search Plugin Stub". This type of pest is usually installed along with software you download from the internet; generally free programs, but not always. Carefully watch for "extra" items that will be installed and un-check or opt-out of them.
- You can check to see if you have any of these from Web Products" installed:
- Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, click on any that you find and click "Remove": Ask.com Bar, My Search Bar, MyWay Speed Bar, My Web Search Bar, Fun Web Products Easy Installer
- See:
- You MAY need to change a preference to reset your default URL/location bar search provider:
- Enter about:config in the address/URL bar and press the Enter key
- If you see a warning, accept it (Promise that you will be careful)
- Filter = keyword.URL
- Below the Filter, if keyword.URL is bold, right-click on keyword.URL and choose "Reset"
- Restart Firefox (File > Restart Firefox)
- See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyword.url
- You MAY need to reset your homepage. Firefox can open multiple home pages. Home pages are separated by the "|" symbol.
You need to update your plugins. It is important to keep them updated due to continuing security fixes and improvements in those plug-ins:
- Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_17 for Mozilla browsers
- Check your plugin versions: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
- Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions
- Update Java:
