I don't receive any error messages, they are just not there. It takes one or more restarts to fix and it's annoying. I don't have any notable plugins, only Addblock Plus, Lavafox theme, and Yahoo/Adobe/Office things

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

You can try to check and repair the places database with this extension:

I wasn't receiving any error messages, they were just not there. The extension helped and everything is ok now, thanks :)
