Help Disable automatic scrolling (jumping) with text-boxes

One VERY obnoxious thing I have found with this phone is it always seems to fight me when I try to scroll on a page with a text box. It just keeps jumping back to the box over and over.

Trying to read text messages is an absolute PAIN when I scroll up to read and it jumps down to the bottom. It will do this 4-5 times. I don't know what makes it stop but eventually I am able to scroll without it jumping anywhere.. until I get another message, then it starts all over.

On forums on web pages I have found the same thing. I need to select something outside of the textbox to be able to scroll without problems.

Is there some way to disable this?

Thanks,
Chumble
