My mouse wheel doesnt work properly in Firefox

My mouse wheel does work when I try to scroll in any page. The scroll wheel works when I am scrolling though tabs but only if I am holding Shift or Ctrl. It also seems to work just fine in troubleshooting mode, but nothing else seems to work. This problem started just after Firefox updated to the newest version.

This could be a problem with "X-Mouse Button Control" if you use this application as mentioned in the 110 release notes.
