------------------------------
Thanks,

I did another test of the scrolling, put the cursor in the window where the 
scrolling was happening and typed C-g followed by  C-c C-c. Scrolling 
stopped, but so did everything else! The ESS and R session now needs 
to be terminated using the Microsoft task list "end task" option.
