Not only Bookmarks, but everything: History, Plug-Ins, Add-Ons, Tabs,
etc: it's just like one Firefox in two or many machines.

Every Tab loads when launching, because I set that Option.

A few minutes ago, on the other machine, I Synced while this FFox copy
had quit - and just now launched it again ... so far it didn't show
the unresponsive script warning.

"I suspect you meant:  Task manager says everything OK.  Correct?"
Correct, Chuck :-) - Wrote in a rush, and if I don't practice my
English here at this List ... it gets worse and worse.

Try Sync between two copies of FFox - it's awesome, and _much_ more
easy in recent versions.

Fernando.
