Is it possible to set autoscrolling in Firefox 4 like it was in Firefox 3.x? (Procedure: 1. middle click on a mouse wheel to start scrolling 2. move mouse up or down to desired position 3. scroll wheel to stop scrolling ) instead of (default for Firefox4): 1. middle click on a mouse wheel to start scrolling 2. move mouse up or down to desired position 3. middle click on a mouse wheel to stop scrolling

Go to options=>Advanced, in General Tab under Browsing section, you can turn on or off the auto scrolling feature.

I still want the autoscroll functionality, I just want to stop scrolling with a turn of a wheel instead of clicking it.
