Try resetmsmice, which will fix this problem, without having to unplug
and replug the hardware.

Title:
  Scroll speed too fast with Microsoft mice

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Ever since I use my "Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000", I
  get the problem, that scrolling is extremely fast after restarting the
  computer after using Windows. The issue seems to be well documented,
  as several other users have come across this problem [1]. The common
  workaround seems to be un- and replugging the mouse's usb adaptor [2].
  I can confirm this workaround works. Another solution is offered by
  Paul Richards with his resetmsmice script [3][4]. These utilities do
  work, and it is less difficult to run a single sudo command than to go
  duck diving underneath my desk each time I start ubuntu. According to
  this [5] thread, he has also submitted a kernel patch, but it does not
  seem to have made it through to me, as the problem perseveres even
  with ubuntu 12.10. Is there any possibilities of adding these kernel
  fixes to the kernel used by ubuntu? I have never comiled a kernel
  myself, but I would gladly assist testing anything.
