If PDF document is open in any TAB, scrolling through touch pad in other TABs is disabled?
I have ACER Aspire 5740G, Firefox 5.0, Windows 7 Ultimate (X32), Adobe Acrobat X Pro. If some online "pdf" document is open in any of the TABs, The scrolling through touch pad in other tabs stop working however it remain active in the PDF document. After closing the pdf tab the scrolling starts to work normal.

I have the same problem and have had it since Firefox 5. I now have Firefox 6.0.2 and still have the problem. Windows 7 x64, Synaptics Touchpad V7.2
If an Adobe PDF is open in a tab, touchpad scrolling only works in that tab. If any other tabs are open and user attempts to scroll, nothing will happen in the non-pdf tab, but the pdf will be scrolling. This can be very annoying because if you forget there is a pdf open and try to scroll, you will scroll the pdf out of place.
