I can be browsing just about anywhere, and randomly, my bookmarks will stop responding. They're all visible, I can edit them, and if I drag one to the address bar it will navigate to the site, but just clicking on them in the toolbar or menu will not work. It works for a while if I restart firefox, but eventually, they'll cease functioning again regardless.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
