You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

It is best to disconnect Sync before trying to repair the places.sqlite file.

Thanks! I don't know if you're with Firefox or not but I find this solution to be odd. I've been in IT for 40+ years and have no problem dealing with a solution like this but does Mozilla really expect a normal end user to know what to do with a solution like this?
