Latest update has lost scoll bar mouse button controls
Running Ubuntu 14.04.3 and the last update to 46.0 has lost most of the control over the scrollbar by mouse clicks, it used to click a page down at a time or there were slow scroll tabs at top and bottom of the bar, clicking in the scrollbar now is either top or bottom of page,.. a bit extreme! It can only be clicked and dragged and that is pretty unstable if a page like facebook adds more content. OK for a tablet maybe, but for a laptop, notebook or desktop system, it's a right pain!!!! Can it be reset with an option I haven't spotted of are we stuck with this? I'm not the only person to have problems with it.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
No the Safe mode is not going to prove any thing and Fred has not even used Linux to be aware of Linux specific quirks.
Firefox as of Firefox 46.0 and newer requires GTK 3.4 or newer to run and as a result needs a GTK 3 them to them Firefox.
If you have say a GTK 2 theme in use the some things may not look right or missing like the arrows on the scroll bar.
Ah, Ubuntu 14.04 runs Unity and GTK 3.4 is actually in beta (not recommended) and rather buggy, hence dropping that into the system may well give a host of other issues I'd rather not be trying wrap my head around.
I can roll back to Firefox 45 but that wipes a security fix and I'm not keen to go there. I notice on the 'Ask Ubuntu' forums, there are a stack of users with similar or worse problems. Did Mozilla actually try this in Ubuntu 14.04 and above I wonder as it's the default browser after all.
Any other way round this?

You can try this, see:
Create/edit: ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
Add following to this file:
[Settings] gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false
