I originally imported my bookmarks from IE. Under Bookmarks, they're in a folder "From Internet Explorer". I have to go into this folder and then click down through other subfolders to get to the entry I need. Is there a way to remove that top level "from IE" folder so that my real bookmark folders are the top level bookmark folders?

Select all the bookmarks in that folder in the Bookmarks Manager via Ctrl+A and cut them to the clipboard.
Then you can paste them in the main Bookmarks Menu folder.
