Strange scrollwheel behaviour (Win2k)

Kilowatt · Post by **Kilowatt** » January 9th, 2004, 10:29 pm

When I scroll up to the top of a page with the mouse scrollwheel, Firebird decides to scroll back one page (same effect as clicking on the back button). MS Optical mouse on Win2K SP4. If this is an optional behaviour, I can't see where to change it.

This is only a recent occurrence, although I had made no changes to Firebird, OS or mouse when it occurred. I have since updated to the most recent build of Firebird in case there had been a fix for the problem

Do you have any extensions installed?
Have you updated the drivers for your mouse?

I have the "Things they left out" and "open in IE" extensions installed, but they have been running for sometime, long before these symptoms arose. I doubt that these would have any impact on mouse behavour.

what about the drivers?
Also, have you checked your keyboard to see that no keys are stuck? (accidentally triggering shortcuts)

I am running a Logitech MX 310 optical and have not seen a problem with the page scrolling. MF 0.7 WIN2K SP3

I have the same behaviour but it happens when you scroll up via the wheel and motion left/right. Moving the mouse left after scrolling up takes me back and motioning right moves me forward.

i'm having this very problem and it's a touch bewildering.
it even happens on the latest build.
any help on this would be swell.
