for example, when I return to google results from a page using the back button, the scroll bar is either stuck and/or it returns to the top of the page (not the scroll bar's last location). reloading the page gets things working again.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
