Thanks a lot! It's so nice to finally find like-minded people! After numerous useless attempts to rearrange firefox shortcuts natively or through the "keyconfig" extension - sane people... ;)

@Ken: To reset zoom you can always go to select View / Zoom / Reset from the firefox menu. Keyboard shortcut Ctrl-0.

I have one question: how can I get back the default zoom?
My website is messed up. After I zoom in and out it seems that I lost the original view of the page :(
Thanks!

I was really bored when I upgraded to FF3 some time ago. Yeah the old way sounds more logical for me: I'm pulling the page towards me with the mouse wheel "down". It's also curious, when I play video games, I expect the other behavior: I'm moving myself with the mousewheel, and so the mouse wheel down would make things smaller (since It'll make my camera move up in air) ;)

A thousand thankyous!

Shouldn't this be configurable via the UI anyway?

@Andras Szekely: Google Earth also zooms in on CTRL+down, so FF2 was not the only program with this behaviour. I also think it is far more intuitive.
