Yes, i can scroll in every other browser, home screen, and other apps. Only not with firefox. I tried some plugins for firefox mobile, but no go..

Hey Folks,

   I had this same problem. Played with all the setting mentioned here in the about:config page to no avail. Then, on a lark I decided to change my setting in the mouse driver from 2 lines per click to three lines per click, which happens to match what about:config is claiming it will do....

Now it works.

FYI my mouse is a Lenovo USB optical wheel mouse on a Thinkpad with ultranav and trackpoint enabled so... in short way too many ways of moving the pointer going on.

Hi Baderd, I have a similar setup. Lenovo Thinkpad, Windows 7 pro 64bit, Bluetooth optical wheel mouse. Firefox 8.0. I played with Firefox and mouse settings but no difference to scrolling problem. Scrolling works in all other programs. I reported this problem many months ago, I've jumped ship and switched to Chrome.
