Page down using scroll bar

[darrel]

By default when you click below the scroll bar it will
automatically page down going no further than the last
part of the screen you were previously viewing. Somehow,
I must have changed this setting and now when I click
below the scroll bar it advances way past what I was just
viewing and skips down and doesn't pick up where I left
off viewing before I clicked. It advances way down and
and then I have to grab the scroll bar to scroll up to
find where I left off viewing previously. I can't find
anywhere where to set this setting of clicking for paging
down on the scroll bar. Any help would be appreciated. I
know I can right click and choose click 'page down' but I
just want what I had before by using one click. Help!!

Hi Darrel - A bug in the Q824145 patch. Microsoft knows about it.
Click immediately under the slider in the scrollbar or drag the slider.

Caused by a bug in the recent Q824145 patch.
Microsoft knows about it.
-------------------------------------------------
position cursor 'close' to the top/bottom of the
slider and it will scroll one window. farther away
from slider and it will scroll farther.

press on actual slider and it slides as you move mouse
(desktop computer...laptop will be using the button
or touchpad)

might try using the............
up/down arrow keys (adjust in keyboard properties
window).
pageup/pagedown keys do what is obvious.
home/end keys are too good to be true.

right click scrollbar
menu pops up
select an option

Fix for the recent scroll problem.
In display/appearance/advanced change the
scrollbar to size 1. This way you will be forced
to use the keyboard and/or mouse wheel to scroll.

sorry, disregard my previous message. i found other
inquiries on this newsgroup with the same problem and
others informing that it's a bug in the new IE6 patch as
the culprit to this problem. -darrel

Any info on if & when Microsoft will be fixing this
problem? I sure can't recommend uninstalling this patch
(though it does "fix" the problem). I have more then one
client that is annoyed by this behaviour.
