Question ID: 369273
I have a Microsoft (Optical Wireless 2.0) mouse with a scroll wheel.
It's the new version of the scroll wheel which, in addition to
scrolling side-to-side, also no longer has those "click-stops" as you
scroll. When you scroll up or down, the scroll-wheel feels smooth.

However, when I scroll in any document (Word, IE, etc.), the page
still jumps and stops on each line (or two or three lines, depending
on the settings). I do have "smooth scrolling" enabled in IE6, and
that does make it smoother BETWEEN the jumps, but it still jumps.

Is there any software or setting (or ANY solution) which will make the
page scroll as smoothly as the mouse, without "snapping" to every few
lines?

There is no answer at this time.

Click your scroll wheel one time it will paint a circle on your
desktop with 2 or 4 arrows in it , just move your mouse for the
smoothest scrolling possible
