Scrolling in Firefox 2.0.0.2

[dreamcatcher]

Has anyone else had problems scrolling using the up and down arrow keys since upgrading to 2.0.0.2? Most of the time I launch FF now, the scroll keys do nothing at all. Its only been like this since the latest upgrade.

Dunno, maybe its me.

No issue here. Perhaps one of your extensions (Add-ons) is causing you the issue?

Might be Coop. I`ll leave it and see if it corrects itself. If not, I`ll start removing the extensions to see if I get lucky. Thanks.

No need to remove, with Fx 2.x you can simply disable.

Oh, cool, thanks. This morning FF crashed twice, so definitely playing up since this last upgrade.

Well, I decided to uninstall FF and re-install. Its been crashing at least a dozen times a week since I went to 2.0.0.2. If it continues, I`ll put the previous version back in.

Made no difference. In fact its now even worse. Its 50-50 whether Firefox doesn`t crash or not. I`m going to put the previous version back in.

Have you tried starting Firefox in safe mode to see whether it’s an extension that’s causing the problem? The command is:

firefox -safe-mode

Thanks Robin_reala, but I decided to re-install 2.0.0.1. I removed all the extensions with 2.0.0.2, and all the data, re-installed without any extensions and it crashed in 5 mins. Since I`ve put 2.0.0.1 back in, its been fine.

I`ve switched off automatic updates for the time being too. I`ll wait until there is another release and try that.

For what it's worth MoCo are pushing out a 2.0.0.3 pretty sharpish due to a regression that broke Backbase based sites.

Ok, thanks, I`ll keep checking the site for updates.
