Synaptics touch pad wont scroll

I have a HP laptop with a Synaptics touchpad. if I am on a document i can put the cursor on any part of the page and scroll down. but if i am on a web page i have to move the cursor to the right side of the page to where you scroll down and then hold down the left mouse button to scroll. i used to be able to scroll the same way on web page as on a document and it is a bit of a pain to have to move to the right and hold down the mouse button.

any ideas out there??

thanks

Edit: I just went on another website and was able to scroll there. this might be something only happening on this site

I think that you misunderstood. I did not mean to do a restore as in reload all your files. What I meant was to use the last "System Restore Point". That is not an effort, and takes only a minute or two.
Thanks

I was aware of what you referred to. :)

I know the difference between a reformat and a system restore. doing a system restore would still be a pain in the neck. takes probably 5 minutes on my computers.

anyway the problem now has disappeared at least for now.
