Re: Logitech SetPoint software malfunction?

Scrolling one screen at a time works great in various applications
on a clean installation of Windows XP SP3, until Logitech's SetPoint
software is installed.

Using Sysinternals Process Monitor, watching Logitech's Setpoint
software screwing around with the registry value WheelScrollLines. I
cannot even recognize an identifiable pattern, except that Setpoint
constantly changes the value from "-1" to a positive number, so that
applications cannot scroll one page at a time.

Apparently the registry key Desktop can be made read only to keep
Logitech from persistently changing the registry value
WheelScrollLines. That appears to be a half decent workaround,
depending on how often desktop registry settings need to be changed.
