When ever I use Firefox 4, either the beta or the final some of my bookmark entries stay on my desktop while Firefox is on screen or if I close the program. The only way to get rid of the snip it of the bookmarks is to refresh the desktop. I am running Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit. The 3. versions of Firefox never did this. Any Answers???

Are you using the Windows 7 Basic desktop theme? The leftover bookmarks bug only happens to me with that particular theme. Try going into Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Personalization and choose a different theme. Hope this works for you.
