How do I disable AutoPager?

When I do a Google search or a products search on a certain website, the search results are usually many pages. Now, BEFORE I have a chance to fully read any page, a display on the bottom right corner of the current page says "Next Page Loading", and the next page is loaded. This keeps on happening, with successive pages, and I have to keep clicking back to previous pages to finish reading them.

This has never happened before. I am using FireFox 3.6.8. O.S: Windows XP Professional. My PC is a laptop. I did an exhaustive GOOGLE search and it indicated that a FF add-on (or probably extension) called AutoPager is responsible. But when I go to Tools -->Add-ons, I don't see it there to disable it. The search results said that this was hidden "within a frame". [I don't understand that].

PLEASE help!

One of your add-ons might be the culprit. Try running Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode with all add-ons disabled. If that solves the problem, see Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and possibly Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems

Open Add-Ons and if you see "PageTweak 1.0.5" among the addons installed, then that is the source of this problem as it comes with AutoPagerize addon. Simply click Options and unselect AutoPagerize(which is the third one in the list). That will solve the problem. HTH...
