I'm left handed and l'm using a tablet and having the slide bars on the right is a pain.

Chosen solution

Set the layout.scrollbar.side pref to '3' to place the scroll bar at the left side.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.scrollbar.side (default is 0: user interface)

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
