Just as the title says, can't scroll up or down with arrow keys, page jumps from top to bottom and vica versa when I use them. Reinstalling doesen't work either, have had this issue since, Firefox 4.0

You may have switched on caret browsing.

You can press press F7 (on Mac: fn + F7) to toggle caret browsing on/off.
