Ubuntu 20.04 Firefox 79

When I open a new webpage and move my mouse to the right to the scrollbar to use scrollbar to move down the webpage, the scrollbar rushes to the bottom of the page. I find this awfully annoying. Is this a feature? Can I turn if off or stop it doing that. J

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
