Firefox 47. Win 7 x 64 ultimate. Cache etc deleted on closedown. Actually I can scroll about 1" and the scroll bar shows that. The problem is consistent.Scrolling is normal elsewhere! IE 11 works normally.

Thanks

Surprised no one knows the solution to this. The result is that I now use IE 11 which seems stable.

Hi, a couple of thing to try: Delete all references to Ebay, as shown under the heading 'How do I remove a single website from my history?' in this article - Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox, then try the site (not from an old bookmark) again.

If that doesn't work, try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:

  • Click the menu button New Fx Menu, click Help Help-29 and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.

If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key while starting Firefox.
  • On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox -safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)

When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".

SafeMode-Fx35

If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article to find the cause.

To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.

When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem. Thank you!

Many thanks Scribe, 98% sure the offending addon was 'S3. Google.Translator.

Edit:- After discussion with the author of S3, it seems the bug is down to the Google widget. The workaround is to make sure S3 does not try to translate Ebay by right-clicking for context-menu - uncheck "automatically this page" or click "Forget the translation of this site" and the problem is gone.
