Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Ubuntu 8.04, Firefox 3.0+nobinonly+Oubuntu0.8.04.1 with firefox-3.0-gnome-support

If I click on a link on a page, go there, then scroll up and down the browser moves to and from the previous web page instead of scrolling within the current page.
I've tried toggling Preferences --> Advanced --> Browsing --> Use autoscrolling but the problem remains.
