How do I stop my space bar from acting as a scroll wheel on web sites (all browsers)? I try typing in FB or on Google search and suddenly in between words when I hit my space bar, the page scrolls to the next post or elsewhere and I have to figure out where I left off in my typing.

these are the most recently updated programs - could any of them have been the culprit to change what freaking space bar is supposed to do?

Is this a laptop or a desktop?
It sounds like you have a stuck key on your keyboard. If this is a USB keyboard, turn it upside down and shake it and blow out the keys with compressed air blow out the crumbs and dust.
Try using the On Screen Keyboard for a test, try another USB keyboard.

I guess you didn’t see the part where it only happens online…?
