Sorry, Drew, I don't believe you ;-) There's nothing in ChangeLog between last June and today to suggest that this behavior has changed since then. And, as I wrote earlier in this thread, on my Windows machine it works as intended, i.e. the problem you seem to describe does not exist. See the recipe I posted a few minutes ago. So the only way I can explain this discrepancy is if one or more of the following are true: . You tried this in Emacs that isn't "emacs -Q", and some customizations you have there have some side effects on this; . You need to enlarge mouse-wheel-inhibit-click-time, because the default value is too small for your fingers; . You have customized your mouse via some Windows facilities so that clicking the wheel no longer produces the events that mwheel.el is programmed to handle.
