    Ok,many of guys reported the problem of mouse with Mozilla browser,each of them having different issues.i can help you since the problems mostly occurs because of following so put the same in the addressbar and check the following preferences
    mousewheel.withnokey.action (value on my system: 0)
    mousewheel.withnokey.sysnumlines (true)
    mousewheel.withnokey.numlines (1)
    Reset their values if necessary.

    I had an issue with my mouse not exactly like yours but almost similar behavior.after a long hard time me installed a new mouse with more buttons, in doing so i was successful to have the extra buttons scripted to firefox.and if you are using a KVM unplug and replug the mouse to the KVM.

    Can you append a condition in the sIFR replace function of the config file. if possible verify the browser by jQuery. for IE you can put wmode=window, else wmode=transparent
    var myfont = { src: '/sifrfont.swf' };
    sIFR.activate(myfont );
    sIFR.replace(myfont , {
    selector: 'h1',
    wmode: ($.browser.msie)?'window':'transparent',
    css: '.sIFR-root { color: #3e2616; font-size: 50; leading:0;letter-spacing: -2; display: inline;}'
    });
