I recently updated both my computer, as well as my wife's to Firefox 3.6.  As soon as we updated, the scroll wheels stopped responding to flash content.

Confirmed on multiple computers and multiple sites with FF 3.6 running on Windows XP SP3.

I have several browsers on my computer to check web-design work, and FF 3.6 is the only browser in which this occurs.

Seems like something very obvious.
