Default control the AutoScroll speed

I would like to control the AutoScroll speed in MS Word 2007.

When I press the mouse wheel with the pointer over the center of a Word
document, the up and down arrows with a dot between them graphic appears as
it should. The smallest mouse move either way (up or down) causes the scroll
speed to go much too fast. I want to control it. I want to be able to set the
AutoScroll speed to scroll more slowly so I can read the text.

This same AutoScroll function's speed is OK with web pages.

I am using a MS Optical USB Intellimouse, Office 2007, Word 2007, Windows 7
(x64), i7-920 CPU, Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R motherboard, a solid state drive and
6 GB of RAM...(yes, it's refreshingly fast)

TIA for your help

This cannot be controlled by Word but by the operating system.
Go to Control Panel, Mouse, Wheel tab. change the number of lines values to
a lower value.
WRT the website, it is probably just the graphics on the webites that is
slighly slowing down the scroll to what you perceive as ok.
Best of luck
