On my laptop, I've always used the arrow-up / arrow-down keys to move one line at a time. After installing the new FF Version 35.0.1, hitting the arrow-down key moves me to the bottom of any page I'm on. Can't find a way to revert this to "normal" function.

Hit the F7 key to turn off Caret Browsing. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility.browsewithcaret

Worked! Thanks for your prompt reply. (Also, I can't find a list of F-key functions), but your info helps for this problem.

Note that you can disable the F7 shortcut key by toggling the accessibility.browsewithcaret_shortcut.enabled pref to false on the about:config page.

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.
