I've had similar issues, though the problem was only if I touched in
the lower horizontal scroll area of the touchpad. If that's what
causes it for you too, open up about:config and set
mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.action = 0
mousewheel.horizscroll.withnokey.sysnumlines = true
The synaptics driver web page has a link here:

which in turn points to a bugzilla entry at mozilla:
