Right-clicking the Back Button displays/allows history pages to be selected. Unfortunately the same functionality has been allocated to Left-Click in Version 4.0 which should be used only for the Back function. If the Left mouse button is held down very briefly(~0.5sec), a slow mouse click, the history is displayed............as a result 3 mouse click attempts are needed to space Back as desired.

The solution is not to click faster, the solution should be to get rid of the redundant history function. Bad UI! Bad Bad Bad!

Try this extension.

Or, try using {Alt + LeftArrow} to go back one page.

I still have the problem. If I click Back slowly the drop down occurs and blocks the Back function. Bad Bad Bad. How do I increase the drop down time delay???
