Recently I began having a problem in Firefox on Facebook. After a bit of scrolling on facebook, there is a pause, then suddenly facebook autoscrolls very quickly, sometimes jumping down 6 to 8 posts at a time. It only happens in Firefox, but it has been so for a few weeks now. Any ideas how to fix it? (Or is it something Mozilla needs to fix?)

No idea, but it has been reported recently. Can you file a bug on bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi ? Thanks.
