See if your eMac falls under this Repair Extension Program:

Nope, but nice try. We have our computer set up into accounts, and it only does it on my account. I don't know why.

If it's only happening under your account, check System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Mouse tab. Is the box for "zoom using scroll bar and [control]" checked? See if your account isn't zoomed in slightly by trying to zoom out. Then check the options button and see if Smooth Images is checked or not, and if the zoom option is set for "so the pointer is at or near the center of the image".

Hold down the control key and scroll down with your mouse's scroll wheel.

I happened to log on as I had exactly the same problem, and your 'ctrl mouse roller' did the trick. (thank you)
What I was wondering was how you discovered it?
