During surfing when I choose Back-button, it takes me back to previous pages, but not to place where I left. Instead it takes me back on top that page. Then I have to scroll down all the way to place where I had already read the page. This is quite new behavior. What is causing it? Annoying.

My problem was only with Google search results. Turning Google instant off solved it. 

After searching there is a little tab to the right of the search button it says "Instant is (on or off)"
