Please can someone help me???

At the weekend I updated to Internet Explorer 7, I am getting used to it but one thing really annoys me and I was hoping someone might be able to help me.

Basically when I use the scroll section on my mouse to move down the screen it continues to move further down or up than I require.

I might be being really pathetic and I might have told it to do this but if I did how do I stop it. :mad:

Hopefully someone will understand my problem and be able to help me. :A

Thanks

Try enabling or disabling smooth scrolling - click here. G

to anyone else thinking of dl IE7, beware.
its got DRM built in. you may have lots of problems with your music/video dl etc...

Hi thanks 'Goofycat' for your help but it didn't work. Any other ideas?

Is there any way that I can get rid of Internet Explorer 7 and reinstate Internet Explorer 6?

Thanks in advance.

If you uninstall IE7, your system will be returned to IE6.

But I think solving your scrolling problem with IE7 may be better overall. G

I agree Goofygat but I am finding the scrolling problem very annoying :mad:.

Sorry Goofygat in the previous message I called you Goofycat! :shocked: :shocked:

Fingers crossed that someone else might have an idea about what I can try.

I did the same thing at the weekend and to be honest I just couldn't get used to it, I found the whole thing just too 'different' , I unistalled it yesterday and IE6 was there like an old friend...

Obviously can't teach an old dog new tricks:rotfl:

Hi,

don't suppose it's as simple as your mouse wheel, have a look at,

control panel> mouse> wheel, you can set the wheel to scroll so many lines at a time.

Hi,

I've tried altering the mouse wheel but doesn't help, thanks for trying to help.

Hi,

found this, suggests re-installing your mouse driver, might work for you.

??? That makes no sense. What problems?

IE7 has got DRM built in, but it only applies when you're dealing with DRM media. In which case browsers that don't support it won't work anyway.
