Description Lewis Thompson 2006-08-18 13:33:54 UTC 
I created a new bookmark with a name but no location (by accident) and Deskbar told me there'd been an error.  It didn't crash and I was able to repeat the error by adding another empty bookmark:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Great app, keep up the good work!

Running on Dapper Drake.  Firefox 1.5.0.5 and Deskbar 2.14.2.
Thanks.

I can't reproduce this problem with the latest CVS version.
Comment 3 Raphael Slinckx 2006-08-21 13:09:10 UTC 
This was fixed in CVS already, closing
