Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Every time I scroll up, Firefox jumps to the page I visited before. I couldn't solve this problem by disabling addons and I didn't find any possibility to disable that dreadful 'feature'.

Please fix this bug or tell me what to do.

I have this same problem -it makes browsing with firefox in 9.04 very unpleasant. You cannot use the scroll wheel reliably to read a page as it will jump forward or back a search page if the right and / or left arrow keys in the top left of the firefox windows are enabled. If they are not the problem does not occur as there is not a page to jump forward or backward to...
