With my new laptop, somehow (maybe with the mouse?) I keep inadvertently changing the zoom on a page. So then I have to go into the zoom link and change it back to 100%. Is there a way to disable the zoom option?

Set the mousewheel.withcontrol.action pref (on Mac mousewheel.with_meta.action) to 1 on the about:config page to avoid zooming if the Ctrl/Command key is pressed.
