    I upgraded to IE7 about a week ago. Ever since then every time I use my scroll wheel to pull a web page lower, it keeps going and going. I have to click the scroll wheel to make it stop. I dont know what happened. I havent changed any settings with my mouse since I bought it 5 yrs ago. It HAS to be something with IE7. Before I upgraded I never had a problem with this.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make it stop?
    Thanks in advance.

    I found a solution from a google forum that solved the problem for me:

    Start. Control Panel. Mouse. Choose the Buttons tab. For "Scroller ", set to the following: Check the box labeled "Use MS Office compatible scroll only." Also, check the box labeled "Scroll in active window only. "

    Works fine after making those changes. So if anyone else wants a fix to this annoying issue, it's here.
