Un-installed Messenger Plus, but the problem still persists.
I am not getting error while removing the links/folders etc. Its just that deleting them or right clicking them is not possible.

please suggest a sw for managing bookmarks.

Messenger PLUS bundles Lop Spyware along with it. Anyway, you got rid of it

Scan your system with BPS SPYWARE & ADAWARE REMOVER. I was put into deep trouble with 'lop bar' and tried all anti spywares but BPS was able to remove it completely. Download BPS and scan your system.

Actually, BPS is itself a rogue AntiSpyware software
To remove the bundled spyware of Msg Plus, the Lop uninstaller works good.
