I Found out it was Adobe FlashPlayer Version 19.0.0.185 THE LAG FREEZE WAS SO BAD i had to uninstall flashPLAYER, I guess I'll have to wait until a new FLASHPLAYER update. The bad thing is now after uninstalling Adobe Flashplayer Some video's wont work now. Facebook works faster now after uninstalling Flash the scroll lag has improved.

==========================================================================================

hope this helps:
