How do I stop Firefox from automatically scrolling to the top of the page?
On certain webpages like this very one I'm using, Facebook and Twitter, FF keeps scrolling up to the top of the page. It's very very very annoying. I unchecked autoscrolling but it's still happening.

It was indeed the wireless mouse. FF is not at fault.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
I'm in safe mode now. It took me several tries just to scroll down to this box.
I've scanned my computer with AVG, Malware Bytes, and Spybot and found no detectable malware or viruses.
So yes, the problem is still here.
This is just with Firefox, yes?
Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe websites. Is the problem still there?
It does not happen on YouTube but does happen on Facebook, Twitter and this site. Also in some forums.
I have not noticed in in gmail but sometimes in my startmail it does it. I have not noticed it in Yahoo mail either.
Now it's not doing it. The only difference I can think of is that:
1. I just restarted FF again, but not in safe mode 2. I am not using the mouse, only touchpad.
Probably have to go home and test it with the mouse again to see if it repeats. Then I'll probably know.
Keep us posted.
