Ooooo! That fixed it. Thanks. Still that seems like an 'oopsie' in the coding. Your fix is more of a work-around than a fix.
What I was doing was transcribing music from a ripped up sheet to make it nice and pretty. I blew through the piece putting the quarter notes in at the right place and then went back to fix the timing. Since I was using quarter notes in 4/4 time, putting the bars in and then auditing the bars later should be no hassle.
Okay I'm finished with those projects but I just invented one to replicate the problem. I put in a long string of quarter notes with the Enter key. Then I went back to change some of them to eighth notes. Starting at the beginning I changed some in groups, randomly, and beamed them together as I went. As soon as the window started to scroll to get to the notes off to the right, when I click the eighth note button, the window jumps back to the beginning. The selection point remains where it was and all the notes selected to change to eighth are still highlighted. So I believe that means the cursor does not move but the window does.
I did notice yesterday that when I edited near the end of the piece, it stopped jumping back to the front. I was near the end but the end was not within the window yet. The pieces were only about 20 bars long so I knew I could tolerate the jumpiness until I finished.
I just installed 2.0 in a new Win7 installation on a 2-year old computer. When I edit existing notes (change from a quarter to an eighth) the editor jumps all the way from where I am in the middle or end of the piece, back to the beginning. Is it supposed to do that? Sure makes it slow to edit when I spend so much time finding my place again.
Just to review, here are the instructions from the plug in page...

Instructions: Download and run this plugin installer program. During the installation, select which browser(s) should be configured to utilize the plugin. Once the setup is complete, you should close all browser windows before proceeding with further browsing.
I downloaded and ran the installer program. First it tried to install onto IE. I clicked through that and it asked what browser to install on. I navigated to the Firefox folder hoping to "select which browser(s) should be configured." I was looking for firefox.exe but no .exe files showed up. I opened the 'plugin' folder and clicked Next. It came back to tell me the installation was successful. I restarted Firefox and still don't see anything in the samples page. Is there something I missed?
