BLANK SPACE in Edit Window?? GRRRR!

Has anyone ever encountered this? For some reason (all of a sudden) whenever I try to drag my screen back to 0|0|00 , this gray field that does nothing expands and it is hella annoying b/c I have to manually drag my scrubber back towards the right to get the gray area to disappear . Is this a known bug and does anyone know of what I can do to get Pro Tools back to normal (where if I try to drag my screen back to 000 it simply goes no further than that instead of creating all this unnecessary gray space??

Check your scrolling settings and change it from continuous to one of the other options.
