Almost every time a site forcibly loads the bookmark page option(ctrl+D) Firefox freezes up for several minutes when this happens I cannot do anything with Firefox. Sometimes I even have to resort to using ctrl+alt+delete to get out of it because clicking the x and trying to switch tabs does nothing.

This mostly happens on http://www.evony.com/ after claiming the free daily amulet(which afterwards the games tries to forcibly bookmark itself)
