Love FF, no scrolling problems, but I do use a mouse instead of the touch pad on my laptop.

Sorry, I guess I didn't explain it well.

At the top of your browser, select TOOLS (or FIREFOX) depending on your version of WINDOWS.
Select OPTIONS from the pull down menu

The OPTIONS window will open.
Select ADVANCED (over on the right at the top)
Select the GENERAL tab (first one on the left)

Midway down are the two scrolling options I mentioned before.
Use AUTOSCROLLING
Use SMOOTH SCROLLING

I have both of these currently checked.

(I don't know if that has anything to do with it but I'm using a touch pad only.)

I have version 17.01 and no issues.

Only issues I had was an irate wireless optical mouse. I seems it was having a spaz attack with something on or near my desk. I switched mine out with my husbands and haven't had a problem since.

I am on 17.0 and you must have something checked in your settings on your computer.

I have fire fox but do not have that problem, I do when I go to my documents though....go to your control panel and look for the mouse icon (windows xp), there is an option for scrolling, fast medium or slow....and sorry about your TBI, I got one in 2011 and multiple other body damage from my accident....

I have Firefox on Apple. I click on "Firefox" on the top left bar and then, "Preferences". I believe you go there to fix your problem.
