<![CDATA[Middle mouse scroll getting stuck]]>So I have been having this issue for years. It is incredibly annoying as I sometimes use the middle mouse feature to smoothly scroll through sites. One example of where it gets stuck is on Youtube. It happens on other sites as well.

I don't have intrusive software / bloatware installed, and it doesn't happen on other browsers using different engines. This is a bug that has existed through multiple Windows installations, clean installs, different mice, etc..

It's now habit to hit escape whenever it happens and it knocks it back to the regular pointer.
