The scroll function on my trackpad does not work after upgrading Firefox from version 3.6.28 to version 12. It works normally in Thunderbird and other applications. This is a Lenovo T61 with XP Service Pack 3 and all drivers up to date. Version 3 seems to have bad memory leaks so I would like to upgrade but I can't do without the scroll function. I'd appreciate any advice.

Try to modify the ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled pref on the about:config page from the default value -1 to 0 or 1 to see if that makes the scroll pad work.
Close and restart Firefox after changing the ui.trackpoint_hack.enabled pref.
