My mouse, like many mice, has a "button 2" which is also a scroll wheel. If I am scrolling, it is fairly likely that I will occasionally accidentally send a button-2. Mozilla treats this click as guidance to take whatever's in the paste buffer, append ".com" to it, and announce that there's no such site. Occasionally, if there's a URL in the paste buffer, Mozilla jumps to that URL. I do not want this. I recognize that this might occasionally be a useful feature, if I were doing it on purpose, but I'm not, and it's such a common error on mice with scroll wheels that I think it's probably a loss. On observation, I note that the scroll wheel only works when the mouse is in a given frame. Perhaps this feature should only be enabled when the mouse is over the toolbar, navigation bar, etcetera?
ugh ... is it a dup of bug 85667 ? and, reporter, i think solution to your problem is here : http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70498#c1
