i've been a little annoyed by the mouse wheel lately, espcially in winamp where a slight slip ends up changing the volume. real problem is there isn't much you can do with system settings (can't diable the wheel) or winamp options to prevent this (not my version anyway).
i just found this plug-in for winamp (reading the forums). plus, i can still use the wheel to scroll, etc.
