When this problem occurs i think about the lack of microsoft's promised product support and scroll it more aggressively. But now i see the problem is a general (possibly driver) problem. I was tempted to disassemble further, but they made it rather tricky. In the HP Wireless Elite Desktop mouse, the easiest access to this wheels spring mechanism was right on the top of the mouse underneath the buttons. I asked to microsoft (global and local) and the answer is "please go and ask to the firm's service where from you bought the product". On the iMicro MO-M128MI USB Optical Mouse, the wheel and spring are easily visible. I searched everywhere a solution but no i one knows anything.

Another problem is zooming in Windows Photo Gallery (Picture Viewer) while scrolling the wheel at its normal speed. Beside these examples i'm sure that this problem is a general driver problem because in almost every program in some cases (lists, menus etc.) this wheel problem occurs. It basically do not scroll in my library list while scrolling normally and its just silly. I have the same problem with the wheel. For me the major problem occurs in iTunes (latest version). I use Intellimouse-software, but it not helped, when I removed it.
Not a very big problems, but there is something wrong with this Wireless laser Mouse 5000 and Vista-combination. When scollin up the window, it first scrolls down and then jumps up right the direction I want. With XP all programs work with this mouse without problems. Then I downloaded excellent xnView and with it my wheel work like it should. Again it is very hard to view a next or previous picture, because I have to roll so fast before it takes any effect. In these two programs the wheel change the picture to the next one. But unfortunately It quite hard to scroll just as much You want. But If I make real fast roll then there is action on the screen. If I roll the wheel slowly nothing happens even I roll and roll forever. At this program mousewheel zoom the picture smaller or bigger. But certain programs there is quite a big problems. With IE, Firefox or office-programs scrolling with wheel is normal.
