Finally found the answer for this and it's simple.  Just go into the
Mouse under Control Panel, select Wheel and at the bottom add MPLAB to
the list of applications to exclude from universal scrolling.  What's
better, once you do this the wheel works like it should, just some
incompatability with the universal scrolling..  May need to get the
intellimouse 2.0 update, since that's what I have.
