Why ONLY when i send files from one pc to another thru local lan the bookmarks it stuck? Every pc was connected(wireless or cable) to the same router.

I can't open/close the favorites tab or any folder in the favorites tab.

If i don't send any file thru local lan it works normally.

Can anyone have any idea why that happening?

hello fits79, is this problem occurring in firefox? - favorites is normally the terminology in IE, but in firefox they are named bookmarks.

if there's a high read-write volume to the harddrive of a particular computer (due to an intensive file operation like receiving a large file) then the bookmarks menu in firefox might slow down when it also needs to query its bookmarks database stored on the same harddrive.

also if you're sending large chunks of data traffic to your network, your router might be overwhelmed and doesn't process other connections in time.

both appear not to be problems related to firefox in particular...
