    Please do a search in the forums. There were some posts regarding this in the past.

    Anyway you will need to download the latest Synaptics touchpad driver from synaptics website, older drivers do not work with firefox.

    Hmm, I've done all that, got the latest driver installed, most current firefox version, virtual scrolling is on, but still no luck. The curser changes to the scrollbar icon, but nothing moves. Also on a zv6000 with xp pro.
    Any other ideas? Otherwise I'll have to use IE - yuck....
    I spent hours searching for a sollution, here and via google, but nothing seems to work :(

    Thanks!!
