No special mouse is being used (Microsoft stuff),, and fresh install of
the official Windows 7 64 bit (but running Qt 32 bit).
It is the same thing with older Qt versions. I just think Windows 7 use
a different scaling for mouse wheel events, compared to XP (I don't know
for Vista). And I guess Qt should compensate for this.

Looking in my application, it seems the delta() value of the Qt mouse
wheel event is about 3 times smaller under Windows 7 (very quick
estimation). So, to get the same behaviour under XP and Windows 7, I
would need to take this into account. But this should rather be the the
job of Qt.

If you take Qt demos such as Text Edit and Interview: no apparent
problem, because the scroll step was already big under XP.
But if you use Assistant, the problem is obvious here, too much wheel
action for too less scrolling happening.
