Alright... so apparently Firefox is being a whore. When I scroll down on a webpage, any webpage, sometimes I need to go back to the top of the page. So instead of scrolling my way up, I simply hit, "Home" and if I want to go to the bottom of the page, I simply hit, "End".
Well for some reason, this morning my "Home" & "End" keys were not working. Out of curiosity I decided to re-install Microshit Internet Explorer just to test it out. And fortunately for my keyboard, the "Home" & "End" keys were working. I decide to go back onto Firefox and try a combination of keys using the "Home" & "End" keys. ALT+ doesn't work. But I found out that CTRL+ does work. So... my question to anyone here is: How the hell do I change it back to default so I don't have to press and hold the CTRL+ key?!?!?!!?!!!! In Ubuntu 8.10 it works fine same with Windows Vista Ultimate. All OS' have the latest and updated Firefox.

It's a bug in Firefox. Certain pages cause Home and End to fail to function. Not exactly sure why, but often it has to do with text areas in forms, combined with hot keys built into the form.
