Any Fix for Sites With Extra Scrollbars? The Extra Scrollbars Can Break Scrolling Software.

Some pages, such as Google Scholar, have extra scrollbars.

I have coordination problems, and can't use scrollwheels, so I use Scroll+ to scroll. It doesn't work with Google Scholar because Google creates tiny scrollbars for each entry, and Scroll+ gets stuck on these instead of being able to use the big scrollbar for the page.

I can't seem to post an example pic...

Can you use the mouse on the full page scrollbar? I think the screenshot uploader is broken. A bug was filed.

Yes, but it's a lot harder than using scrolling software. I have coordination problems, and I use os x which won't let me widen scrollbars.
