How do I fix (Firefox 32 has caused problems) switching between application (without first minimizing) windows and unintended scrolling

more options

When I have several different application windows open I must first minimize the current application window in order to view another application window. Sometimes when I have two windows (for instance a chat window) open, one on top of the other, the top window moves to the back w/o being requested to move.

I also experience unintended scrolling on various applications open in FF 32.

These problems do not occur in IE.

The windows popping may be a system problem. While many users report this type of problem with Firefox, I have seen non Firefox windows popping up. Even if the window was minimized.

Not a system problem. Switching works fine when I use the current version of IE!
