Firefox 5 has a bug, it tries to load the next page of a site below the existing page, any fix yet?
when you scroll down to the bottom of a web page, the browser in v5 tries to open the next page if there is one. It opens the next page below the existing page and scrambles the content. I have become annoyed with it and uninstalled v5 and gone back to v4. To be certain, I have viewed the sites I was having trouble with in Chrome, IE8 and IE9 and there are no issues with these browsers on the sites concerned. I have concluded it must be an issue with Firefox v%.

You may have installed an extension that adds this feature.
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Hi Cor-el
The problem was active before any add-ons or extensions were added. To be certain I deleted all the add-ons from V4 but the issue was still there. I have re-installed v4 now as the issue was a pain.
Did you try if it still happens in Save mode ?
I also have this problem. Fine in 3.6 not in 5, (unsure about 4).
Still happens in safe mode.
I have the issue around pdf's is there a way I can change the <a> tag to stop firefox from prefetching it?
If I view source as the request then I get something like this, although starts a slightly different point each time.

If I tamper data the request this is what I get:
I've just installed Google's mod_pagespeed on the server and it seems to have fixed the problem. Unsure why?
I have returned to v4 as that works OK. I can't be bothered to fiddle with the thing, if Mozilla want their software to be used it should be robust before they launch it. I had more that enough years ago with Microsoft launching software that needed fixing, I now take the attitude if they want me to use something, fix it. If Mozilla want business' to use the software they need to thoroughly test it before launching it, I have no time or patience these days to play around with someone elses problem, sorry. Google Chrome, here we come.
Google mod_pagespeed has not solved the issue. I take the previous comment back.
Well it's seems to be reliable but not perfect.
Also note that it only happens if you click on a link not if you type the link's address into the address bar.
