It was too late to edit again. Since changing smooth scrolling
in IE has no effect my problem is I can't disable smooth scrolling.
Just a more precise way of saying what I was trying to say in my
last post. Hope you all make more productive use of your free hour
than I just did. Scrolling through the Internet Options Advanced
window is normal but scrolling through web pages and text
documents is where my problem is.

One more edit:
I just checked the IE 6 options in the W2K Pro profile I usually
use. Smooth Scrolling was checked but unchecking doesn't
seem to do anything. It definitley didn't give me the waves
I'm getting on the XP install.

This is the registry key on my XP that controls smooth scrolling. It's value is changed from 1 to 0 by checking or unchecking smooth scrolling in internet options advanced tab.

If smooth scrolling is enabled the arrow keys and vertical scrolling bars are smooth but mouse scrolling is wavy. Disabled smooth scrolling makes the mouse scroll however many lines you prefer at a time and makes the vertical and horizontal scroll bars jumpy. I'm sure you probably knew this already but I couldn't find any way to have it both ways either.
