I'm not familiar with that particular mouse, but the problem sounds like a
failing or sticky microswitch inside the mouse. It's apparently getting 2
contacts for every one you want.
As for a solution... get a new one. If still under warranty, get gateway to
send a new one, if not, Logitech and microsoft make good mice, among others.
$20-50 dollars is reasonable for a wheel mouse.
