I reformatted my computer a few days ago and reinstalled firefox. I then added to my bookmark tabs from memory. Every time I bring up the browser, the tabs are rearranged so I have to reorder them they way I want. Some of the tabs don't even drag.

Where are the bookmarks out of order:

  • Bookmarks Toolbar
  • Bookmarks Menu or Bookmarks Sidebar

How are you rearranging them -- directly on that bar/menu, or using the Library dialog (Bookmarks Organizer)?
