How to disable space bar = page down?

more options

The space bar key acts as the page down key. How do I disable this? I have a page down key. I don't need the space bar key to perform the same function. It interferes with other things that use the space bar key.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== I pressed the space bar key

try adding a comment to <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643365> so this can be fixed. This problematic behavior was added to please some users who are too lazy to use the page_down key.
