Mouse behavior in the "active" window

When I have OE open, if my mouse pointer is on the folder side, the scroll
wheel works on that side. If I move the pointer to the message side, the
scroll wheel works on that side, even though I haven't clicked on a message.
But in Explorer, I have to click on whichever side I want to scroll before
it will work. I see this behavior on 2 different XP machines with different
mice and on a Vista machine with a 3rd different mouse. Any idea how to make
Explorer windows behave like Outlook Express Windows?

TIA,
SC Tom
 
When you're doing what you describe in OE, you're still moving the
pointer/cursor focus to a separate area.

This is true, but I'm not clicking in that area. No matter which area I
click in, the scroll works in either. I'd like to have that same behavior in
Explorer.
